I did a really good and easy xmas tree craft today with under 3 :
made them paint a paper plate in green, sprinkle some red sequins...
cut plate in 4 and voila 4 xmas trees.
put a brown paper square for tronc.
I stapled 4 on a lengh of black wool with a regular space in between and a hoop at top.
looks really nice 4 dangling trees :)
hope i'm clear. it's easy and effective
OOOh and we put a golden star on top of each tree

After reading the opening post, I made these today. They look really nice, even my 1yr old used his hands to smear the paint over the plate. Having read the post again I see I've made mine differently. I have overlapped the 4 bits and made it into one tree on a string. Still pleased with the result and thanks very much for the lovely idea
