This toilet paper tube Christmas tree is a fun and easy kids Christmas craft. Perfect for preschoolers, as well as elementary kids. Includes a free printable tree template.

My kids loved making this Christmas tree craft. I think my kids made a whole mini forest.

My daughter says she is going to use the trees to decorate her Lego city. My son plans to use his to decorate his block city.

I love how this Christmas tree craft stands up. The toilet paper tube is the tree stump and it also makes the tree stand up. This would make a perfect holiday decoration for a mantel or table.

Their favorite part was decorating the trees. I think my daughter decorated every inch of the green construction paper.

The first step of this simple kids Christmas craft is to either print the free tree template or you can draw the Christmas tree. Also, the precut foam Christmas tree shapes work.

After you have cut out the Christmas tree, then comes the fun part. Decorating your tree. You can use markers, paint, glitter glue, stickers, or beads to decorate your tree.

We used craft supplies that we already had at home. My kids decorated their tree with stamps, glitter glue, and stickers.

My kids are 7 and 8 and were able to make this kids craft by themselves. Depending on the age of your child, you may need to cut out the tree shape.
