Tape Tree Craft Materials
Materials needed for the Christmas Tree Tape Pull Craft:
- A wall space within your toddler’s reach
- Green painter’s tape for the tree
- Assorted colors of painter’s tape for the ornaments
- Yellow painter’s tape (for the star)
Christmas Tree Activity Preparation
Now, let’s break it down step by step:
1. Select Your Wall or Door Space
Find a suitable area on the wall that’s easily accessible to your toddler. Make sure it’s safe for them to reach and play without any hazards.
2. Outline Your Christmas Tree
Use the green painter’s tape to outline a Christmas tree shape on the wall. Create the illusion of branches by making horizontal zigzag patterns across the tree with the green tape. Make sure it’s within reach of your toddler. Include a stump at the bottom for a complete look.
3. Add Your Ornaments to the tape tree
Use the assorted colors of the painter’s tape to add ‘ornaments’ to the tree. You can cut the tape into small pieces and bend them upward so that they are easy to grab.
4. Add Your Star Topper
Put a star on your tree using yellow painter’s tape. Make it more interesting and eye-catching by layering pieces.
Put the colorful tape ornaments back on the tree, which helps toddlers develop fine motor skills and understand stickiness and texture. Ask your toddler to identify colors, count the ornaments, or follow patterns during this activity. The best part of this tape activity is that it can be easily reset. You can redecorate the tree multiple times with your toddler.
As you finish this festive activity, stand back and watch as your toddler delights in the magic of the season. The Christmas Tree Tape Pull is an excellent way to incorporate play, learning, and holiday fun into one delightful package.
