Read Pine Trees (A Rookie Read-About
Science Book) by Allan Fowler.

Make a Pine Tree with Green Yarn, Pipe
Cleaners, or Strips of Paper.

1. Cut green green pipe cleaners or yarn
   or strips of green paper into 12 to 20 pieces.
   Make the first piece very small. Make
   the next piece just a bit longer than the
   first piece. Continue, making each piece
   just a bit longer than the one before it.
   
   

2. Glue or paste them to a piece of paper or
   cardboard. Start with the shortest one at
   the top of the page. Under it, center and
   paste the second shortest piece. Continue
   until the longest piece is the one at the
   bottom of the page.
   
   

3. Now you have a pine tree! If you like,
   you can decorate it with stickers or add
   "snow" to the branches by sprinkling on
   white glitter glue.
