Make a Handprint Christmas Tree

Materials : Green Paper or craft Foam

  Scissors

  Brown Paper

  Colored paper for decorations (optional)

Instructions : Trace the child's hands many times (at least 10) on green paper/craft foam. Alternatively you could make green paint handprints on paper.

Cut out the handprints and glue them together with fingertips facing down to form a tree shape

Glue a brown rectangle trunk

Decorate with stickers or make ornaments to hang. Use glitter glue to give the decorations some sparkle.

You can also add the child's name and the year.

Add a string if you wish to hang on the tree.

You can use LOTS of handprints to make a tree big enough to hang on the door.

You could glue a picture of the child in the center of the tree for a keepsake and ornament combo.
