Directions:
- First grab your jumbo popsicle sticks and school glue.
- Lay four popsicle sticks next to each other {like you are making a fence} one by one, on a flat surface.
- Next grab your remaining four popsicle sticks and start gluing them the other direction to make the body of the tractor truck.
- Once all the popsicle sticks are glued together, allow the newly made tractor design to dry completely before embellishing.
- Repeat for each Christmas tractor you want to make today.
- When the popsicle sticks are secure and dry enough, grab your craft paint, paper plate and foam paint brush.

- Set it aside again, to allow the paint to dry.
- While that is drying, grab all your cardstock paper and craft scissors.
- Cut out one large and one small tractor wheels, along with the other tractor truck features from the cardstock.
- For the window of the tractor, either use a Santa head stickers like I did or draw him in with a Sharpie marker.
