Christmas Coloring Pages and December Activity Ideas for Preschool and Home

1. The Christmas pages

• Christmas animals (8): a fawn on a sleigh, a bunny at a gingerbread house, a polar bear by the tree, a kitten with stockings, a bear with presents and more.
• Winter animal scenes (7): polar bear gift wrapping, reindeer cookie bakery, penguins building a snowman, a winter light festival and more.
• Winter princesses (6): the gingerbread snow princess, the ice crystal princess, the winter rose princess and more.

2. A four-week December plan

• Week 1, tree and decorations: color the polar bear by the tree, then decorations to cut out for the class tree.
• Week 2, gift wrapping: color the gift-wrapping scene and talk about who you would give a present to.
• Week 3, cookie baking: color the reindeer bakery and the gingerbread house, then make cookies from clay or paper.
• Week 4, Christmas cards: turn colored pages into cards for family.

3. Making cards from colored pages

Print a page on A4 or Letter, color it and fold it in half with the picture on the front, then write a message inside. Print at quarter size and glue onto card stock for small gift tags.

4. Christmas colors

Red, green and gold are classic, while winter-night blue and snowy white give a calmer feel. Follow each page’s color reference or choose a class color scheme.

5. For church and school events

A preparation schedule and a 90-minute program using Bible story pages are in our guide to preparing a Christmas event.
