DLTK's Holiday Crafts for Kids
a different kind of
Christmas Tree Craft

There are two variations on this craft depending on which templates you print and how messy you want to get. You can either:

Print the Bells and Holly and decorate a "homemade" trunk (to make the trunk, trace your child's arm from the elbow up, including the fingers).
Print the Trunk and the Bells and Holly and paste them together.

If you want a very well covered tree, print two copies of the Bells and Holly template.

Print out the craft template of choice.
Colour pieces, as necessary. (For a change of pace, try using different mediums than you typically do, such as paints or pastels).
Cut out the pieces. This step may require adult assistance. Don't worry too much about getting the tree branches cut out perfectly.
Glue the bells and holly all over the tree to decorate.
You can glue the entire tree to a decorated background (blue construction paper, with green tissue paper for grass and white cotton balls for clouds works very nicely!).

Close template window when done printing to return to this screen.
Set page margins to zero if you have trouble fitting the template on one page (FILE, PAGE SETUP or FILE, PRINTER SETUP in most browsers).
