How to make an Easy Christmas Wreath Craft
First, print out the Christmas Wreath template onto white paper. There are 2 pages. One is the circle for the wreath and the other is bow choices for the wreath.
Pour some green paint onto your paper plate. Clip the large pom pom onto the clothes pin.
Show your child how to dip the large pom pom into the paint and dot the green paint along the circle to make a wreath.
Once the circle has been covered in green paint and the shape of the wreath is formed, it’s time to decorate it!
We used red pom poms to resemble berries.
Using the school glue, we glued the red pom poms to our wreath.
If you like, you can add real ribbon bows to the wreath.
We went simple and used the paper bow template.
You’ll want to pick the bow you like the best and color it red with crayons.
Then, using child safe scissors, kids can practice those fine motor skills and cut out the bow.
Next, use glue to attach it to their beautiful wreath.
And that’s it, you’ve got a simple pom pom wreath.
Such a great idea for an easy Christmas Craft for preschool!
