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 today.
- 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 glitter glue to “paint” snow all over the popsicle stick shape. If desired, sprinkle some loose craft glitter on top of that.
- Once done, set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!
- For easy displaying in your home – glue some string to the back for hanging on the tree or adding to gift packages!
