The day we decorate the Christmas Tree is the official kickoff to Christmas. It’s the perfect day for reading Mr. Willowby’s Christmas Tree by Robert Barry, The Tree That’s Meant to Be by Yuval Zommer and Pick a Pine Tree by Patricia Toht. We snuggle up on the couch, read, and then head to the art cupboard. Once my kids are in the “zone,” I put on some holiday music. Here are The Best Christmas Tree Books and Crafts to turn holiday madness into holiday magic. Wishing you a few hours in which “all is calm, all is bright!”
There are so many adorable Christmas tree crafts out there but our favorite is a simple one: Painting a wooden tree ornament with Kwik Stix and adding some sparkly holiday gems. You can also use a tree shaped piece of cardboard or construction paper and paint away. It’s simple and relatively mess free so it makes a perfect activity if you’re hosting a holiday party with lots of kiddos and want to put together a craft table. Making a Paper Plate Christmas Wreath and a Tape Resist Christmas Tree are other worthwhile projects that require more help from mom and dad.
In addition to making a Christmas tree craft, check out these videos by Art for Kids Hub where you can learn to draw a delightful tree.
Keep little hands extra busy with this adorable Christmas Tree Sticker book by Usborne. Kids get to choose a tree, take it home, and decorate it with gorgeous, colorful ornaments.
Hoping this collection of The Best Christmas Tree Books & Crafts brings you a little extra cheer this year. Wishing you and your mighty ones a very Merry Christmas.
