3D Christmas Tree

3D Christmas Tree

Posted 2013-12-14 by Vanessa Mfollow
This three-dimensional tree is one of the simplest ways for your child to make a Christmas tree this year. If you're up for something a little more complicated though, you might want to try out this one too.

Time: 35 minutes
Age: Any Age
Level: Easy

Materials
  • Plain white cardboard or sturdy paper
  • Green paint and paintbrush
  • Scissors



  • Method
  • Cut your piece of cardboard in half.



  • Cut out two Christmas tree shapes. Try to make sure they are as similar as you can make them (trace around the first one you cut if you need to).



  • Paint the shapes green on one side.

  • Let the paint dry.

  • Paint the other sides. You may want to paint on some decorations at this stage too.



  • Let the paint dry.

  • Create a slit up the middle of one of the trees, stopping halfway up.



  • Create a slit in the other tree shape, from the top downwards this time. Again, stop at the halfway point.



  • Use the slits you have created to slot the two pieces together. The tree should now stand by itself.
