Cut the shapes out of felt in advance
Let the children cover the felt shapes with the coloured stickers. My preschooler was keen to organise colours and shapes whilst my toddler enjoyed sticking random patterns and colours.
Pole a hole in the top of the shape and hang onto the Christmas tree using a piece of sparkly pipe cleaner or thin ribbon.
