Christmas Cards for Preschoolers to Make
What you need:
- Plain white cards
- Colorful scrap paper (Christmas wrapper or scrapbooking paper remnants)
- Gluestick
- Scissors
- Puncher
- Pencil
- Ribbon
How to make the Christmas Tree Card:
- Cut strips of scrap paper in varying lengths.
- Glue the scrap paper strips from shortest to longest to form a rough triangular shape. This part doubles as a problem solving activity for your preschooler, as s/he compares and determines which length comes next.
- Glue in short scraps of paper for the ‘trunk’ of the Christmas tree. And finish it off by cutting a star shape (an adult may have to do this part) and gluing this on to the top of the tree.
How to make the Christmas Wreath Card:
- Punch out as many small circles as you can. It is best to use double sided scrapbooking paper or colored paper scraps for this Christmas wreath card.
- Draw a circle on the plain white card. Then apply glue all around the circle.
- Pour all the small circles all over the card, making sure the entire circle is covered. Shake off the excess.
- Tie a ribbon and glue it at the bottom of the circle to complete the wreath.
