Start with a picture you like, then decide whether to keep it as a full sheet, mount it on a card or use a purpose-made craft template.

A cheerful puppy peeks out of a striped Christmas stocking decorated with a big star.

A clear main shape

The puppy and striped stocking offer broad areas. Color the star first, then repeat colors on the stocking stripes.

Use the star-and-stripe bauble shown here. Work on the paper print; the swatches are a suggested palette.

Suggested color example

Christmas bauble with a red bow, three gold stars and alternating green and white stripes.
Digital coloring example: a red bow, gold stars and alternating green and white stripes. The wide band and upper area stay white.
  • 1. Red bow
  • 2. Green stripes
  • 3. Gold stars
  1. Color the bow red.
  2. Alternate green and white in the lower stripes.
  3. Color the three stars gold; leave the wide band white for contrast.

Keep the finished sheet, or mount a suitably sized print on folded cardstock and write a greeting inside.

More selection and activity ideas

Choose a page

Choose a tree, ornament or stocking for a clear main shape. Village scenes and decorated rooms offer smaller details. The puppy peeking from a striped stocking has broad areas; the fox tying a ribbon around a gift adds patterned paper, room details and a resting cat. For more stocking patterns, try the three stockings above an unlit fireplace.

Try it together

Choose a few colors for the tree decorations, then try a different combination on another page. Display the finished pictures together or add a handwritten holiday greeting. A finished picture can become a paper greeting card. For a separate hanging-decoration craft, follow the gingerbread guide and use its own printable sheets; any cutting needs help appropriate to the child’s skills.

For individual coloring pages, choose US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) or A4 to match your paper in the print or PDF controls. Check fit and margins in the preview, then print one sample before making classroom copies. Coloring-page printing guide.
