Spruce the place up for Christmas!
These lovely little festive pine cones look great on the tree.
We think these DIY Christmas decorations are so pretty – they're like mini trees to put on the big tree! They're also super simple to make, and a sweet keepsake to look back on during the festive seasons ahead.
You'll need
- Pine cones
- Mini craft pompoms
- PVA glue
- String
How to make your pine cone Christmas decorations
Step 1
Show your child how to add blobs of glue and stick on the pompoms. Aim for the spaces between the pine cone branches.
Step 2
Tie a loop of string to the top of the pine cone, and ta-da! A mini festive tree for the big Christmas tree!

Learning guide
This craft is a great way to get little ones working on their creativity. Encourage them to take their time, as it can be quite intricate work getting the decorations onto the individual pine leaves. Pine cones have a really interesting texture too, so ask your little one to explain what it feels like. You could also talk about how pine cones come from Christmas trees.
