Have you started on Christmas crafts with your little ones? Maybe the Elf may be bringing some your way over the next few weeks?

My eldest is 9 and absolutely still a believer. She set out this little craft station for the Elves to make something for her when she was in bed last night 🙆‍♀️ so at 2am, bleary eyed I very quickly made this little tree. it is perfect for a simple craft to do with children that can be part of a small world scene. You can even do a bigger one using a kitchen tube too.

All you need is;
An inner cardboard tube
Something to turn it green (I used a felt tip but you could use crayons, pencils or paint)
Scissors to cut the shape
Wool or string to wrap around like tinsel
Stickers or gems to decorate (depending on your child's ages you may prefer to just add extra colour dots)

Have fun!
