Are you looking for an easy craft project to do with your kids? Here is a project my daughter and I did. We made a picture of a tree using coffee filters. This craft project is easy, simple, cheap, and fun.
Supplies You Will Need:
- 3 Coffee Filters
- 2 Sheets of Construction Paper (1 Brown)
- Glue
- Scissors
- Crayons
Directions:
Step #1: We made a small picture on standard size construction paper. You can make a lager one as well. For the smaller size, we cut the bottoms of the coffee filters out. So we were left with the round bottom.
Step #2: Color the coffee filters. You can use green or a collection of green, red, brown, and orange for fall colors.
Step #3: Cut out a tree trunk on brown construction paper. If your child is good with scissors, just trace the outline for them and let them do the cutting.
Step #4: Glue the tree truck to the full sheet of construction paper (the background).
Step #5: Glue each of the colored coffee filters to the page (on top of the tree truck).
Above was a picture of our final product. Below is a picture of a larger tree we also made the same way. We just used full coffee filters and a large sheet of construction paper.
Doing craft projects with your child is a fun activity that is great for whenever, especially a rainy day. What is nice about this preschool craft project or kindergarten craft project is that most parents already have all the needed supplies at home!
