This activity is a great way to work on fine motor skills, colors and shapes with your toddler while giving them a Christmas tree they can actually play with!
Supplies you need:
shoe box
tree template
construction paper
craft knife
tape and glue
pom-poms
- Print out the Christmas Tree Printable on green construction paper and glue it to the box lid. I cut out a yellow start to put on top of the tree.
- Use the craft knife to cut out the smaller inside circles on the printable.
- I cut out different colors and shapes to glue over the holes to make the game a bit more challenging.
- When your toddler is ready to play, give them craft poms in the colors of the “ornaments” and let them enjoy pushing the poms into the holes of the box. For older toddlers you can encourage them to put the colors in the correct holes, or just let them play!
