Pine Cone & Pom-Pom Christmas Trees

How we did it:
Materials List
- pine cone
- pom-poms
- glue
-
My daughter was so excited when I presented her with a bag of sparkly red and white holiday pom-poms that I picked up for $1 and a pine cone from the yard. (Hooray for the little things in life!)

Perhaps it was the way I placed the pine cone on her art table or she'd seen this before, but without any prompting she said, "I'm going to decorate this as a Christmas tree!"
-
She got right to work, using dots of school glue on some of the pine cone's scales to adhere the pompoms to the pine cone.
-
After creating the little red and white one, she dug into our craft supplies to (successfully) find more pom-poms, and decided that the little tree needed a "rainbowy mommy tree" - naturally!

Sometimes these classic crafts from our own childhoods have staying power with our little ones!
