Christmas Ornament Art Game

Need a Christmas ornament art project for your December bulletin board? Imagine your hallway decorated with these holiday ornaments and writing prompts for Christmas. The step by step drawing guide, PowerPoint and demonstration video make perfect no prep, art sub plans for elementary art.

That’s right. Sit back while I teach your students how to play the roll a dice game and design the ornament activity myself! Kids can also choose patterns using the ‘you pick’ worksheet or digital spinners—whatever works best for you!

Plus, it’ll help cash-strapped teachers like you plan projects for Christmas using only markers. Yes, you can watercolor paint with markers!

What’s Included

I’ve designed 3 different ways for students to attempt this Christmas ornament craft. All will motivate kids to create! Choose which way works best for your classes:

  • Roll a dice game to add randomness to your student’s artwork
  • “You Pick” art worksheet for kids to choose their own patterns
  • Digital spinner wheels, so kids can randomly pick patterns and you can integrate technology
  • Printable dice template in case you have no dice
  • Step-by-step picture directions to guide students through the art process
  • Christmas ornament template which kids can draw directly on it or transfer it to heavy drawing paper
  • Drawing practice worksheet, so kids can practice drawing patterns
  • 2 Writing prompts, so you can tie this drawing project to literacy
  • 2 Coloring pages that you can use for absent students or hand out as a classroom prize
  • Helpful Tips & Tricks handout with teacher directions to help guide the lesson
  • Step by Step Video Tutorial, with optional captions

How to Use My Christmas Ornament Project in Elementary Art

The best part about my Christmas art project is that it’s flexible and can be used in many ways throughout your classroom. It’s great for maternity or emergency art sub plans, early finisher activities, indoor recess, or even an after-school art club.

You Will Receive

  • 1 Non-Editable Printable PDF (Christmas Ornament Art Project)
  • 1 Non-Editable PowerPoint 
  • 1 Demonstration Video
  • 5 Digital Spinner Videos (downloadable, and links to them on Google Slides and YouTube)

Why You’ll Love It

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 

Such a fun project to do with my Art students at Christmas time. They love rolling the dice and drawing the design. They have so much fun, they ask for it every year!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was a great purchase. It was fun and simple and comes with amazing step by step directions. My students really enjoy these activities. And once they understand the process of the roll a drawing, students loved that they could do multiple times with different results each time.

This was easy to use and would make a great sub lesson since students are able to use it with minimal supervision or instruction (especially for upper grades) from the teacher.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I needed a quick art project for a sub. This was fun and simple and comes with amazing step by step directions. The sub said it was a lot of fun!

  76. Leslie M. –

    This is a fun activity for students – interactive and artsy at the same time! Easily adapted to different learning needs too – students who didn’t like drawing – or find small motor activities tougher- still loved rolling the dice and cutting and gluing the patterns before adding colour!

  103. Melissa Mitchell –

    Great resource! Thank you:)

  104. Kaitlin S. –

  106. Trenee C. –

    I loved being able to use these ornaments to decorate my classroom door for the winter season! My only disappointment was that they only came in such a big size. I thought they would be smaller for me to be able to hang on my classroom tree.

  107. a Colorful Mixture –

    This was a great purchase. It was fun and simple and comes with amazing step by step directions. My students really enjoy these activities. And once they understand the process of the roll a drawing, students loved that they could do multiple times with different results each time. This was easy to use and would make a great sub lesson since students are able to use it with minimal supervision or instruction (especially for upper grades) from the teacher.

    I used this activity with my 6th graders as a fast finisher and they loved it so much! I then used it in my mom’s second-grade class before they left for their Christmas break and they loved it too! For the 2nd graders, you definitely need enough time to give some very detailed instructions. Once they get going though, they’re quick and love the activity!

    I was looking for creative ideas to help my students have some downtime to work on skills like following a pattern, coloring in the lines, and having something creative to do. I didn’t realize that the patterns were not all across but in small squares so this caused some issues at first for my kids. We figured out a way to make it work but next time I will adapt it to their needs.
