What you will need: Assorted colors of Construction Paper, Glue, Scissors, Pencil and a Crafty Little Hand
Grab a piece of brown construction paper, place the Childs hand in the middle of the page. Trace the hand and the arm creating a tree. When cutting the hand out, You need to cut a base that can be wrapped around and connected to itself. So the tree will stand up on its own, not having to balance on another object.
Leaving the cutout hand and base flat, have small squares cut out in every color of construction paper available. Fold the squares in half and show the kids how to cut a heart. Unfold the cut teardrop shape and glue the hearts to the branches of the tree (fingers).
On the base, you can cut two slits opposite of one another so the base can connect to itself or you can staple it together.
With white construction paper, add a special note to mom or dad and glue it to the base of the front of your tree.
Let’s see how crafty those hands can be this Valentine’s day!
