This kid-friendly Christmas craft is perfect for all ages! Customize the colors to match your holiday decor, and be sure to have fun with it. These popsicle stick trucks are easy and enjoyable to make. Happy crafting!

Craft Supplies:

Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – 3 per Christmas truck
Mini Popsicle Sticks – 2 per Christmas truck

Cardstock Paper {black, white, red, green}

THINK AHEAD TO FEBRUARY —> Popsicle Stick Valentine Love Truck

Directions:

First grab THREE jumbo popsicle sticks, TWO mini sized ones and the school glue {the popsicle stick amounts are per truck you are going to make}
Lay the three large ones next to each other, one by one, on a flat surface.
Now grab your other two mini popsicle sticks and glue them the other direction to create a fence. Set aside to let it dry a bit. Repeat for each truck.
While those are drying, grab all your cardstock. Cut out embellishments for your truck {wheels, the bed of the truck, a window} as well as tracing your child’s hand on some cardstock, trimming it out and decorating the cutout either as a Christmas tree or snowmen. Set all these aside when done.
Once the popsicle stick shape is dry enough, go ahead and paint it with your craft paint.
To finish off the Popsicle Stick Christmas Trucks, glue the cardstock pieces you made {including the handprints in the back of the truck!} in place as well as any other embellishments you see fit {think rhinestones, glitter, etc.}
Also go ahead and use Sharpie markers to draw a “Santa driver” in the window of your truck.
When it’s all done and dry, display it or play with proudly! Remember – you can also add ribbon to the back to turn it into an ornament!
