If you are looking for a fun craft this Christmas that is great for kids of all ages, I hope you’ll consider my 3-D pyramid Christmas tree craft. I made one and had a lot of fun with my kids. This craft was inspired by the mountain themed baby shower I threw recently. We had left over 3-D pyramids, and I was immediately inspired by these and the upcoming holiday celebrations. If you want even more Christmas tree craft ideas, come see my popsicle tree craft, fingerprint Christmas trees or my other popsicle tree craft.
