How to make it
1Tape the tree
Stick tape on the paper in a big triangle tree shape. Add a strip for a trunk.
2Press it down
Have your child rub the tape edges hard with a finger so paint can't sneak under.
3Paint everything
Let them paint the whole page, tape and all, in any colors.
4Let it dry
Wait until the paint is dry to the touch, about 30 minutes.
5Peel the tape
Peel the tape off slowly. The white tree shows up underneath.
6Decorate the tree
Add dots of glitter glue on the tree for lights.
Fold back a little tab on each end of tape. Small fingers can grab it when it's time to peel.
