“Have you seen the film about the tractor?”

“No, I haven’t. I’ve only seen the TRAILER!”

Although Santa typically gets around on Christmas Eve with his reindeer and fancy sleigh, I figured it was time to give him a NEW ride for the big day!

If you could hear him do the “Tim Allen grunt” right now, I bet that’s exactly what Santa would sound like, if he saw this DIY Christmas tractor made from popsicle sticks, in person. Least in my head, this sounds about right! Feel free to laugh at me…I do it to myself all the time.

Anyways, I’ve taken my favorite three craft mediums and made a Christmas kid craft you probably won’t see anywhere else right now. That’s why you should bookmark {or PIN!} this very post! I just know your child is going to love it! Not to mention – you can hot glue some ribbon to the back and hang it on the tree instantly. Perfect for a farmhouse tree theme!

So what are you waiting for? You know you want to recreate this Christmas farm tractor idea! Let’s grab those simple craft supplies and follow my step-by-step tutorial below to let the festive fun begin!

Happy crafting with your child today! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your finished popsicle stick farm tractors with us on our Facebook page, to admire! #gluedtomycrafts
