The 38-year-old pop star has revealed she relishes the challenge of making gifts for her loved ones, describing it as "therapeutic".
Kelly - who has River, six, and Remington, four - shared: "I love making stuff. Not only because it's fun to create something, but also it's, like, therapeutic. You're just sitting there.
"Like, when I colour with my kids, yeah I'm doing it because it's fun with them, and they love it, and they ask me to do it, but also it's, like, really soothing, oddly.
"I used to laugh at people when I saw adults with colouring books ... and I didn't get it. Now I am one of them. It's really therapeutic and this has been a hard year."
Meanwhile, during a digital segment of 'The Kelly Clarkson Show', the singer offered some advice to one particular viewer ahead of Christmas.
In a message to Kelly, the viewer asked: "I do Christmas with my dad's not-so-fun side of the family. This year, I used quarantine as an excuse to go with my mom's side instead by telling my aunt we were staying home, then accidentally put her in a group chat about 'going with the fun ones.' Am I going to hell?"
In response, Kelly jokingly said: "No, but you are in so much trouble.
"Here's the thing: don't lie. Just own it. And then be like, 'Look, maybe this is your opportunity to become the fun ones.' Just own it. You can't lie.
"In that situation you just gotta be like, 'Sorry it was a turd statement. I do stand by it, but maybe let's do something to turn it around.' A fun little family game maybe come up with? I don't know."
