[Decalcomania] A Fun Paint Christmas Tree

Handmade Christmas Tree Craft: An Activity for Ages 1 and Up That Can Be Used in Nursery Schools

Why not try making Christmas trees with children using the decalcomania technique? Decalcomania is a method where you fold a painted sheet of paper in half to transfer the paint.

After dabbing paint with your fingers onto one half of a Christmas tree shape cut from colored construction paper, fold it in half and press firmly.

When you open it, you’ll have an adorable, symmetrical tree! For one-year-olds, the feel of paint on their fingers and the sensation of pressing it onto paper are completely new and exciting.

It’s also fun to decorate with round stickers or star-shaped stickers.

[Toothbrush Painting] Pop-up Christmas Card

[A Must-See for Childcare Workers!] Christmas Tree Cards Painted with a Toothbrush #Shorts

Let’s make lovely Christmas cards by painting with a toothbrush instead of a brush! By adding a mechanism, you can enjoy it as a pop-up card, too.

First, fold the base of the card in half, cut a slit, and fold it diagonally to create the pop-up mechanism.

Next, dip a toothbrush in paint to draw a Christmas tree, and use a cotton swab to dab on decorations.

Please have the teacher support the children during this step! Finally, write a message and add star-shaped stickers to finish.

If the children give their handmade Christmas cards to their parents or guardians, they’re sure to be delighted.

Paper Plate: Cute Christmas Wreath

Paper Plate Wreath [Christmas Craft] [How to Make] [Easy, for Ages 1 and Up]

How about making a Christmas wreath out of simple paper plates as a craft to enjoy with children? First, fold a paper plate in half, cut out the center to create the wreath base, and have the teacher paint it with poster paint.

Next, let the children stick on masking tape, round stickers, and star-shaped stickers.

Besides painting, you can also enjoy other methods with the kids, such as tearing origami paper and gluing it on, or attaching crumpled tissue paper.

To finish, punch a hole at the top, thread a ribbon through, and it’s done.

If you have time, adding a bell made from origami or your child’s photo would make it even more charming.
