PRINT THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS CRAFT -

Calling ALL my crafty mamas who have little ones in the home that love TRUCKS and CHRISTMAS! We are combining BOTH for a great kid craft idea and I hope you like our Popsicle Stick Christmas Trucks tutorial today!

We even added a little “handprint element” to the back of each truck to make them into keepsakes, as well!

We have even shared quite a few “truck themed tutorials” in the past on our website and today’s post is just one our latest ideas but with a festive Christmas spin!

This kid friendly Popsicle Stick Christmas Trucks craft is completely customizable when it comes to the colors and of course – it’s super easy, inexpensive and fun for all ages!
