Instructions
Step 1
Christmas crafts with children are easy to make and with a minimum amount of material. Take white or colored cardboard and cut to size for the postcard. Cut A4 colored paper in half. You should have two pieces measuring 10 by 30 cm. Then draw the sheets of colored foil self-adhesive paper into strips of one centimeter in size. Cut the strips with scissors. Divide the stripes by color. Invite the children to choose the color scheme of the future Christmas tree themselves. It can be multi-colored, or two or three colors.
Step 2
About eight strips will go for each Christmas tree. Have each child select the desired number of colored stripes. Distribute 10 x 15 cm cardboard or paper. Have the children glue the strips onto the cardboard, removing the bottom layer. The strips should fit snugly together. Better if they find each other.
Step 3
New Year's crafts with children require attention from the teacher. After the strips are glued on, distribute the stencil of the future creative Christmas tree to the children. Let the guys trace the borders of the stencil with a pencil and cut the Christmas tree themselves. Cut some double-sided tape, distribute to the children. Invite them to stick it on the base of the future postcard, remove the top layer from the tape and stick the Christmas tree on it. The creative Christmas tree on the card has been created.
Step 4
Christmas crafts with children are great for developing creative thinking. Give the children decorative items, self-adhesive rhinestones, ribbons, and glitter gel pens. Offer to decorate the cards yourself. After the children have done this, the work can be considered finished.
