Instructions:
Free Craft Template: Christmas Tree
1. Parents print out the template to size they prefer and paste the template onto a piece of cardboard. Now these templates can be cut out. Older kids can cut the templates out themselves and parents can cut for the tots.
2. From each piece of tissue paper, tear pieces out that are about one inch in size. You will need lots of green and just a few pieces of red and yellow. It does not matter if the pieces are a little larger or longer.
3. Wad each piece in a ball.
4. Working on a small section at a time, apply plenty of glue press the wads into the wet glue. Continue until the tree is completely covered without any of the cardboard showing through.
5. Add red and yellow wads randomly to look like ornaments or add wooden beads in different colors.
