Jeweled Christmas Tree Craft for Kids

Simple Jeweled Christmas Tree Craft for Kids

We love quick and simple crafts, especially around Christmas time.  A couple years ago we made these adorable Paper Strip Christmas Trees.  They were a huge hit, so I decided to make a simpler version this year.   Instead of 3D trees, we created this super simple Christmas Tree Craft for Kids.

 Christmas Tree Materials:

  • Green Paper Triangle ~ I precut them, but would be a great time to work on those all important scissor skills.
  • Jewels ~ Lots and lots of Jewels!
  • Glue
  • Q-tips
  • Clothes pin

The kiddos LOVE when I bring out the bin of jewels.  A little sparkle makes any craft amazing.  We also had fun revisiting our simple Gingerbread Pattering activity.

Squeezing glue from a bottle is great for building hand muscles and co-ordination.  However if Im being honest, most of those bottles are hard even for ME to get to work.  I find that its easiest to pour a bit of glue out and let the kids dip and dot the glue onto their project.  Q-tips work great for dipping glue, plus the kids love it!

We also love our homemade glue sponge.  If you have not tried it yet, I bet your kids will love it!  So easy to make, and it really saves on glue!

I love how clothes pins look as the stems of these little Christmas Trees.  Simple, cute and so easy.  Everything we love about kids crafts!
