One of our favorite times of year is Christmas! The Christmas season is a joyous time in our home as we celebrate the birth of baby Jesus. We honor the season by incorporating an advent study into our school time, listening to lots of Christmas music, giving our time and resources to others, and reflecting on all the wonderful blessings in our lives. And, of course, we also love the Christmas movies, decorations, peppermint hot chocolates by the cozy fireplace, baking all the treats, and giving gifts! My little ones especially love getting to break out the special printable Christmas coloring sheets. And, I’m so excited to share those with you today!
How to Use These Free Christmas Coloring Pages with Younger Kids
Because I am homeschooling 3 girls while also caring for my 2 toddler boys, I am always in need of easy, fun activity sheets to keep the littles entertained. When the holiday season rolls around, it’s so fun to print off Christmas coloring sheets to really get in the holiday spirit!
Not only do these free printable Christmas coloring sheets keep the little ones busy for a few precious minutes, but they are also serving an important purpose for their development, too!
Coloring & Fine Motor Skills with Printable Christmas Coloring Sheets
You’ve probably heard about the importance of working on fine motor skills with your children. From first learning to pick up bits of food to writing and using scissors, fine motor skills are intertwined throughout our day, every day!
Coloring is an excellent way to help strengthen your toddler/preschoolers fine motor skills. The act of holding a colored pencil or crayon, and moving it with control to color a picture, strengthens those essential fine motor skills.
So, not only are these printable Christmas coloring sheets great for entertaining, but they are also exercising tiny finger muscles. It’s a win, win!
Coloring Pages for your Holiday Party
Need a quick, easy idea for your upcoming holiday party?
Print out some coloring sheets, gather together crayons, markers, and coloring pencils, spread them out on a table, and let the kids get creative!
Not only is coloring a fairly low-mess activity for a party, it is also entertaining and quiet! Say no more.
These would be great to have on hand for any homeschool co-op Christmas parties, or for classroom parties as well. Set up a coloring fun station and let the kids create a masterpiece to take home to a loved one!
