Day 10 of the Activity Advent Calendar – Paint a Christmas Tree
Another Simple Christmas Tree Craft! It’s the simple activities like these that have been the most popular on our advent calendar.
I’ve never seen B work so hard to paint in the lines before. Then he glued down circles for the ornaments. I usually put dots where I want him to put the glue as a guide but this time I let him plan it out on his own and it turned out great (versus a big pile of ornaments in the middle).

Looks like fun! I have a baggie full of punched out circles from our old Christmas card. This might be a fun way to put them to use:)Thanks for sharing with the Holiday Blog Hop!

Cute idea and I have enough scrap paper lying around to make the ornaments. We have enjoyed following along with the Advent activities.

B did such a great job on this. What a great piece of art work to have hanging up to display for all to see.
The ice cream cone Christmas tree looks like so much fun. I think we will have to try this one.
I am enjoying all of your Advent calendar activities. We have also been having lots of fun working on ours and it is making Christmas that much more special. I recently blogged some downloadable Christmas themed physical activity cards that you may be interested in. Savvy loves them and we have been having so much fun with them.

Somple activities are always the best. Your kiddo feels proud and you have something cute to display. Also, wanted to tell you that the ice cream cone tree is super fun too.
