Truffula Tree Art

Supplies:

• White paper or card

• Paints or markers (black + bright colours for trunks)

• Tissue paper in bright colours (yellow, pink, red, orange, etc.)

• Glue sticks or PVA glue

• Scissors

Steps:

1. On the paper, draw and colour tall tree trunks with bright stripes (alternate a colour with black to get the classic Dr Seuss look).

2. Cut tissue paper into squares (about 10–15cm across).

3. Scrunch each square into a loose ball to make a fluffy pom-pom.

4. Glue a pom-pom at the top of each trunk to form the Truffula Tree top.

5. Let dry before displaying.

Other Information:

• You can swap tissue paper for cotton balls dyed with food colouring.

• Works well as a group mural if you tape lots of trees together on a wall.
