We love making fall crafts for kids – check out our 3D owl coloring page craft or get your kids to assemble a 3D life cycle of pumpkin crafts.

Then they can use our favorite coloring tools and fall coloring sheets.

Craftsmanship today is mainly about fallen leaves and autumn.

How to make autumn tree newspaper crafts

What you need:

  • drag
  • glue
  • blue paper
  • old newspapers, magazines or store flyers
  • thin cardboard or brown paper

Step-by-step instructions

Trunk

To make the chest, have the kids wrinkle brown paper. You can also ask them to use old newspapers and paint them brown.

It will take a little twisting and turning to shape the stem.

It is an exciting process for young children.

Ask them to trim the ends to get the desired length of the stem.

This is an example of what a tree trunk looks like.

Have your child glue the tree to the bottom of the blue paper.

Branches

The tree needs several branches. Have your child cut out a few rectangles of different sizes to make tree branches.

We have created our own six branches, your child can create any number they like.

Have children twist the branches the same way they twist the trunk.

All six branches are ready.

Next, they need to apply glue (on the branch or paper) and stick the branch on the paper.

Let them be natural with the placement of branches.

The leaves

Prepare old newspapers, magazines or brochures and let children cut out leaf shapes. Any color will do, but if you’re aiming for an autumn feel, red, yellow, orange and brown are best.

Any color will do, but if you’re aiming for an autumn feel, red, yellow, orange and brown are best.

Different tones will make the tree look its best!

It’s time to glue on the leaves.

Have children apply glue to the leaves and stick them to the branches.

They can stick some leaves directly onto the green paper to make it look fuller.

They can create a pile of leaves at the bottom by gluing one on top of the other.

Correct! What a beautiful autumn tree journalism!

We love how the different colors make it stand out!

Children can create different tree shapes by twisting and folding branches.

Have fun!
