About this coloring page
Several candy canes cross each other in a bundle, their hooked tops curving out to the sides. A large ribbon bow ties them together at the top, and spiky holly leaves with round berries sit around the edges. Some canes face left and others face right, which makes the bundle look balanced and full.
Coloring ideas
Red and white stripes are classic, but green and white or rainbow stripes are fun too. Color the holly dark green and the berries red, and give the bow a bright color. Try a candy cane with three colors of stripes for a twist.
Skills practiced
The stripes make a natural pattern, so children can practice alternating colors. Talk about how candy canes are shaped like the letter J. Children can count the stripes on one cane or the berries on the holly.
Printing tips
Markers make crisp stripes on this page. Print it as a gift tag or card cover. A ruler held at an angle helps older kids keep the stripes straight, and a stack of copies makes great party place mats.
