Holiday Craft

Hello Friends,

Here is a very simple craft to do with your child.  This craft encourages fine motor skills, math concepts and language development.

First, have your child cut up some paper stripes.  You can either draw  some lines for them to cut or they cut then on their own.

          

Second, glue the paper stripes on a piece of paper.  Ask the children what they think a Christmas tree might look like, is the top bigger or the bottom?  Where does the shortest stripe go or where does the longest stripe go?

Decorate the tree using items such as tissue paper, markers, stickers, glitters – ask your child for ideas.

For older children, you can either dot the paper stripes or number the stripes.  Then ask them to glue the paper stripes in chronological order.

         

Have fun.
