Type of Activity

Spiritual Development Activities

Aim

Tree of Happiness

 To express happiness through art.

You will need

Sticks and twigs, string, paper, pens, pencils, felt tip pens, glue, glitter, string, pictures of friends and family, a picture of yourself, objects that are important to you, beads, craft leaves, ribbon and any other craft material.
 
First you need to collect some sticks and twigs - you will need approximately 12. Arrange the sticks so that they form a triangle. You may need to cut the sticks to the required length. Tie the sticks together up each side, making a loop at the top to hang your tree. Now the fun part! Use all the things you have brought to decorate your tree of happiness. As you glue pictures of your family and friends think for a minute why and how they bring happiness into your life. As you attach beads, glitter and other objects take the time to think why you have chosen them, the colours, texture etc., and how that makes you feel. Attach a photograph of yourself at the very top. Hang your tree and sit back and be happy!
