Christmas Tree & Presents Matching

I did this activity a couple years ago at Christmas with Henry. I found it on No Time for Flash Cards.

I reused some scrap wrapping paper pieces and cut out a Christmas tree shape in four different wrapping paper patterns. I glued these to a large piece of paper in a row.

I also cut some (very rough) squares to act as presents.

I mixed up the presents into a pile and Henry’s task was to match the present to their Christmas tree.

He glued each present underneath their matching Christmas tree.

I have found it impossible to Google ideas from a million different sites, get organized, shop for supplies, etc. This is exactly what I have been searching for! Thanks for making something so organized and easy to use. - Early Years Activity Plans User, Melissa C.

This takes down the need to scour the internet for ideas. It's like looking for a recipe on the internet, so many options that often times it is less overwhelming to look in a book on the shelf than stress about too many options. - Early Years Activity Plans User, Robyn G
