One of the things i love doing each year is setting up a tree {of some sort} that is just for G. A tree that she can call her own and not have to worry about being careful with. For her first Christmas as a toddler, I made her a giant felt tree that hung on the wall. She loved it {and then mice ate it up while it was being stored in our garage – gross!} The following year, I created a smaller felt board Christmas tree for her, and she still plays with it today. But for this holiday season, I wanted to try something new… A sticky tree! Our fall sticky apple tree was a big hit, as have our other sticky wall activities been, so I assumed this would be too. I was right. ☺
But how could my little magpie not love it with all of these beautifully sparkly and shiny pieces involved?
‘Ooooh, they’re so pretty, Mama!’
I think she also really loves the fact that it’s life size…
But never fear – she’ll figure out a way to get that start on the top!
So far her life size sticky christmas tree has brought on lots of fun, and I can see her adding to it and reworking it until Christmas is eventually here!
