We had so much fun with this simple and very easy winter tree craft! 

This really fun and easy winter tree painting is very easy and so much fun for preschoolers. 

I love bringing forth easy and simple crafts that we can use with basic household items. 

Much like a simple spring tree painting, we decided to bring forth a really easy winter tree drawing because its the winter time, yay!

I’ll be sharing below how I set forth this really simple and very easy tree winter activity and all of the items we used: 

Materials: 

We only used 3 ingredients/items which were easy peasy: 

• Construction paper

• Pom poms (on the larger side)

• Washable kids paint

Finger Paint Craft Ideas

To setup this simple winter tree art project/activity: 

• I made sure the blue paper was faced on the longer side. 

• Then, we used brown paint on my LO’s hand and pressed it down onto the blue sheet of construction paper. 

• Note: This is the tree bark. Make sure to add brown paint to not only the hand but on a part of the arm as well so that the tree trunk is longer and looks like a tree. 🙂 We will do this next time! 

• Then, once that is dry (or not) use a large  white pom pom to dot white paint around the “winter tree bark”. This is “snow” and is so much fun for learning about the winter season. 

Paintings of winter trees

Not only can you learn about painting a winter tree, you can also paint and learn about the other three seasons with a:

• Fall tree painting 

• Summer easy finger painting tree

• Spring tree painting

Elaborate on the colors of the trees leaves and how they change from season to season. 

In the winter season, the leaves fall and the tree is bare with only a tree trunk. 

This is a wonderful way to create paintings of winter trees with preschoolers and for kids! 

Paintings of trees in winter can be made easily with a few items: 

• Kids paintbrush

• Pom poms

• Qtips held together by a hair tie

• Your fingers and palms of hands (the best! :))

And even more ideas…

Can you think of another fun DIY tool that can be used for this winter tree painting tutorial? 

I hope you enjoyed this simple winter tree painting preschoolers and littles can try at home for learning about the winter season! 

Painting winter trees doesn’t have to be very hard. 

Winter tree painting art projects can be made easy with just a little kids paint and your hands! 🙂
