3. Pom-Pom Candy Cane Counting Craft
The holidays offer a perfect opportunity to mix creativity with early learning skills. This candy cane craft helps preschoolers practice color matching, counting, and pattern recognition.
Using a candy-cane shaped cutout, kids glue red and white pom-poms along the outline to create the classic striped pattern. Teachers can turn it into a learning game by asking children to count the pom-poms or continue the AB pattern.
The finished candy cane can decorate classroom walls, holiday cards, or Christmas celebration boards—and they look adorable!
