Tis the season of Christmas and New Years, at home as well as at school you can create so many art projects with the little ones. The materials you would need to make a christmas tree would be green construction paper, and different colored papers shaped out in circles, glue, scissors. You can cut out a triangle shape using green construction paper. Also, as you are doing this you are also teaching your students the shapes of a circle and triangle. You will cut out different color circles and glue them onto the triangle which represents a Christmas tree. You can also cut out small squares that represent presents under a tree with different construction colored paper. You can also make the tree white doesn't have to be green too or any color you want to make your tree, pink, blue, green or white.

 Also something that always is done too in schools are snowmen out of 2 or 3 white circles. This is another way of learning shapes. You cut out white circles, carrot nose, a hat, belly buttons, shoes to paste on the snowman and you have a beautiful snowman. Even a Santa Claus can be made similar with white and red construction paper, using the shape of circles, rectangles, and squares.

 Another art activity, would be creating a Christmas village with homes and snow, you can cut out the homes out of colored construction paper shapes rectangles and squares. With cotton you can paste the snow above the homes, creating a winter home setting picture.
