Materials:
- Cardboard
- Green yarn
- Hot glue or liquid school glue
- Foam star stickers
- Craft scissors
- Pom-poms (assorted colors)
- String (if turning into ornaments)
Instructions:
*Hot glue gun should only be handled by an adult*
- Start by cutting out triangles out of the cardboard. You can cut simple triangles or you can leave a trunk at the bottom as well.
- Now, let the kids wrap the green yarn around and around the cardboard triangle (tree). Secure with a hot glue gun, or you can simply tuck the end of the yarn under the wrapped yarn to secure at the back of the tree.
- Next, glue on the pom-poms and add the star. Make them look at festive and personalized as you can! Get creative!
You can turn these into Christmas tree ornaments by gluing a piece of string to the back of each tree. You can also use them in a garland and hang over a mantle, wouldn’t that be pretty?
