Christmas Stocking Coloring Craft

Need the perfect last minute, zero prep, print-and-go holiday activity? Decorate your December bulletin board with this Christmas stocking coloring craft designed for 1st through 3rd grade. Best of all, it includes 3 versions. So, every project turns out different! Did I mention the writing prompts? Post your crafts in the hallway with the prompts to make a stunning holiday bulletin board.

If you’re racing to figure out what cute project to quickly put up in the hallway for Christmas look no further. Students can complete the craft part in one class period. And you can use the accompanying writing prompts to post alongside your projects.

Basically, each child receives a copy of the template. Then, they color everything, cut out the parts, and glue it together. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

Teaching in a hybrid learning environment? Assign the coloring pages for homework and focus on the writing in class.

This craftivity also comes with a PowerPoint with step-by-step pictures and simply written directions for young children. Use it for either whole group or small group instruction. Or, assign it to students via Google Classroom, Canvas, etc. so they can work independently.

Are you going to be absent and your substitute won’t have access to technology? No problem! Use the 1-page all-in-one step-by-step picture directions. Just print it out and include it with your sub plans. And then do nothing. Yes, nothing, because I’ve done it all for you!
