Handprint christmas tree
I love christmas crafts, so I am excited to be able to start now it’s December.
This week we loved making a handprint christmas tree. It was so easy, fun and messy!
Handprint christmas tree
I put some green paint on a sponge and the children used that to create lots of handprints. They did need a little help making sure the handprints were full enough. Then I let them loose to do more prints on their own too.
Once the prints were dry, I cut them all out and we all stuck them down on some card with glue in the shape of a christmas tree.
Then came the best part, decorating it. The children stuck star stickers, other sparkly stickers and pompoms all over the tree.
This was so effective, yet very easy and it’s lovely having my children’s handprints on there. If we do this every year and keep them, I will also have a record of their handprints growing.
You could make it even simpler by putting the handprints straight onto the paper, rather than cutting them out, but I prefer the cutting out effect.
Oh that is so adorable – and like how they are separate so you don’t have to get the kids to actually make the tree shape.
It was really easy to do and lots of fun
That is so cute, what lovely festive fun! Thanks so much for sharing with the Monday Parenting Pin It Party

That is so much fun – thanks so much for linking up to the Parenting Pin it Party. My kids would have loved doing this when they were little
It was lots of fun for everyone
What a great project that you work with the really little ones on but also leave the little olders alone to do! From the Parenting Pin It Party! Thanks
It is a good craft to do with a variety of ages
This is lovely! Great idea. Saw on pin it parenting.
