What Skills Can Your Children Learn And Practice?

DIY Printable Christmas tree crown and headband templates for kids crafts

When making this festive headband, your children will have the chance to practice and develop some skills such as:

  • Cutting Skills – if you feel they’re ready, you can let them have a go at cutting out the pieces all by themselves – they’ll need to be careful and have good scissor control if they want to cut out the headband neatly
  • Pencil Control – if you print off the black and white version they can practice their pencil control and develop hand strength through coloring.

And when they’re done, they’ll also be able to use their imagination, story telling and social / communication skills when going on Christmassy adventures with friends and family!

Other Materials You’ll Need:

  • Safety scissors
  • Card stock or craft paper
  • Some good glue or a stapler
  • Some coloring pencils or pens / other artsy materials for decorating

Once you’ve downloaded the templates, you’ll need to print them off onto paper or card.

Then, you can cut them out. Or if you’d like your children to get some cutting practice, you can let them have a go.

Then you simply need to cut the bands to the right size (I’ve included an extra sheet of bands so there’s plenty).

Then either stick or staple them into a loop to fit your child’s head.

Sorted!

There’s also a plain Christmas tree crown template:

So your little learners can decorate their headband just as they’d like it.

Why not add some glittery sequins for baubles or some pipe cleaner tinsel? They could even draw a few presents on the bands and cut out a little star to go on the top!
