Making homemade Christmas ornaments is a tradition that kids love to do every year. Finding an ornament craft everyone is able to do can be tricky, but these yarn wrapped Christmas trees are a hit for kids of any age. Even little toddler hands can help wrap yarn around cardboard triangles to create these cute little trees! Make some extra ornaments to give to Grandma or add to the top of a wrapped gift!
Materials Needed:
- Green yarn
- Red yarn
- Cardboard
- Scissors
