First, I’d like to share my Christmas tree puzzles with you. These challenging puzzles are pure academic fun. They help students get in some great practice on their math skills. Choose from subtraction, multiplication, division, or addition. There’s even a puzzle for adding and subtracting big numbers – up to 1000! Each puzzle allows you to properly challenge students. Get your class working on the puzzles together – either individually or in partner or group work. But they are also a great tool for fast and early finishers or review work.

Make Your Own Christmas Tree Puzzles
One of the coolest things about Christmas trees is that no two of them are alike. Even if you have two of the same type of evergreen sitting side by side, there are differences. Add decorations, and each tree becomes a unique expression of the family to which it belongs. In a similar way, you can use my editable Christmas Tree Puzzle to make a unique activity just right for your class! These enchanting puzzles are a wonderful practice tool for your students. Use them to teach just about any concept that you want your students to practice. Use them for more advanced Math puzzles, Language Art skills, sight words, and facts of all varieties. You could even use one to teach facts about trees! Whatever you want to teach, when you put it in the form of a Christmas tree puzzle, it becomes a lot more fun!Click this link to find an editable Christmas tree puzzle in my store.
What Teachers Are Saying About Christmas Tree Activities for Kids
People who have bought my Christmas Tree activities have said:
TARSIA PUZZLE – BASIC SHAPES INTO CHRISTMAS ART FUN!
The fun Christmas tree below was made from a triangle. I think it would be fun to stack three triangles on top of each other for a larger craft! I cut the star and trunk out of paper I had around.
- These are fantastic and I love using them in my math classes and the students love trying to put the pieces together!
- Kids loved doing this, we made them into Christmas Trees after they were completed. Great for Christmas Tree activities. Thank you.
- Great resource! Awesome way to have division practice as well as making it fun while the students try to figure out the puzzle they are putting together.
- We used this with our first grade buddies at Christmas. It was a lot of fun.
- I used this as a center in December, and it was perfect! I liked that the kids who struggled got some practice, but could see the shape of the puzzle and were able to complete it (even if they didn’t actually do all of the problems on the sheet). They got some practice, and didn’t feel badly about not finishing, or taking a lot longer than some of their classmates.
- I love activities where students don’t realize they are actually working and think they are just having fun! Thanks!
- I have a hard time finding multiplication centers that provide correction for students, so many multiplication games my students say the wrong answer and move on, this product self-corrects!
A DIGITAL CHRISTMAS TREE OPTION This digital “Build Your Own” Christmas Tree is a fun way to bring extra Christmas magic into the classroom. Let each student design their own just for fun, pair it with a book about a Christmas tree, use it for computer/mouse manipulation skills, OR use it for the entire class where they can add a piece to the Christmas tree as a behavior incentive!
