Popsicle Stick Winter Tree Supplies:
* Jumbo Popsicle Sticks {3 per winter tree – affiliate link}
* School Glue
* White Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Paper Plate
* White/Brown Cardstock
* Craft Scissors
* Silver Glitter Glue {affiliate link or you can use silver glitter & school glue instead}
optional – star glitter {affiliate link} ribbon, glitter, feathers, pom poms etc.
Directions:
* First have children assemble the base of their winter tree by gluing THREE popsicle sticks together to look like a triangle. Set aside to let it dry. Repeat for each piece you want to make.
* Next squirt some paint on a paper plate and have children paint their newly made popsicle stick shapes completely white. Again, set aside to let it dry completely.
* Now grab your scissors and brown & white cardstock. Cut out a small rectangle from the brown. Go ahead and glue it to the popsicle stick piece to represent the trunk of the tree. Next grab your white cardstock. Trim it down to fit inside the popsicle stick piece. Glue it to the back of your piece.
* To finish off the Popsicle Stick Winter Tree – have children use silver glitter glue to “paint” snow all over the popsicle stick shape. Once done, set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly! For displaying – glue some string to the back for easy hanging on the tree or adding to gift packages!
