For Earth Day and Arbor Day one of my 5 year old classes made some Truffula Trees. They're so easy to make and a lot of fun.

You Will Need (3 things)

  • Pipe Cleaner(s)

  • Pom Pom(s)

Steps (4 steps, 5 minutes)

  1. 1

    Take two different colored pipe cleaners and twist together to make them spiral around each other tightly.

  2. 2

    Optional:
    Add a drop of glue to one end of the pipe cleaners.

  3. 3

    Insert the glued tip into the pompom.
    (use red, pink, orange, yellow, or purple to be accurate to the book)

    Let dry.

  4. 4

    Now you can display your Truffula Trees anyway you please!

    Add to a display board, stick in a flower pot, or some clay, use as door decs.

    Besure to add a quote from the book THE LORAX for added effect.

    "I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees. I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues."
