    This preschool ornament craft is made using craft sticks, and any child can put together by themselves.  Since craft sticks, glue, and sequins can be bought in multi-packs these ornaments are very inexpensive and very simple to put together. The children will have a lot of fun decorating them!

2.  Add a drop of glue to the ends of the craft sticks as shown, then assemble the triangle Christmas tree shape.  Allow to dry well.  Hint: For very small children that have trouble squeezing a glue bottle, have white glue in small disposable condiment cups at the craft station, with a cotton swap for them to apply the glue.
