One struggle every parent of young children have at Christmas time is how to maintain a Christmas tree throughout the entire season when little hands are made for destruction. Here are a few kid friendly tree alternatives and some they can help create if they are a bit older.
These trees made of felt are actually perfect for little hands to decorate and undecorate over and over through out the season.
These trees can be constructed by your kids from items they are used to handling anyway. The lego tree is especially ambitious!
These paper trees can be made in full scale using fringe, colored stripes, post-its or wrapping paper left overs.
The best part of the tree is when it lights up, so why not made that the focus by stringing your lights in the a tree shape on a flat wall. Hung garland helps the effect if you're trying to look more realistic.
These trees are also great as space savers if you don't have much room to accommodate a 3 dimensional tree.
