About this coloring page
Santa stands facing you with one hand raised in a wave and his eyes crinkled in a hearty laugh. He wears his fur-trimmed hat, coat and boots, a wide belt with a square buckle, and mittens. Over his shoulder he holds a big tied sack with a teddy bear and a toy block poking out of the top.
Coloring ideas
Red and white are the classic Santa colors, with a black belt, gold buckle and black boots. Give the teddy bear a brown coat and the toy block bright letters. Peachy cheeks and a white beard finish the look.
Skills practiced
Children can write a short letter to Santa or a wish list next to the drawing. Counting the buttons and toys or naming the parts of his outfit adds simple vocabulary.
Printing tips
Santa's coat and beard are large shapes that suit crayons and markers. Print one for every child at a holiday party, or use it as the cover of a homemade card. Cotton balls glued on the beard and hat trim turn it into a soft, fluffy craft.
