Step 4.

Once you have the initial shape of a Christmas tree, you can add more paint stamps. If your kiddo would like to add multiple colors to the tree, now would be the time.

Step 5.

Lastly, glue dots should be placed around the tree. Then, add a confetti dot of glue on top of each dot (to represent an ornament).

Step 6.

Finally, glue a white or yellow pom pom to the top of the tree to make it look like a star. You can also add glitter or small beads for extra decoration. Have fun creating your own unique Christmas tree!

If you want to try different colors, you can use green and red construction paper instead of white. Or, if you have some spare fabric lying around, you can cut out different patterns and glue them onto the tree for a textured look.
