Christmas Drawing for Kids in the Classroom
Teaching kids to draw helps them develop important cognitive skills like focus. When your kids learn to draw, they are also learning to write and think creatively. They’re developing better hand-eye coordination, analytical skills, and learning to communicate their own ideas.
Drawing is a lot of fun for kids, but it’s also a really important learning tool you can capitalize on in your lessons. Don’t confine drawing to art lessons, instead use it to help kids communicate what they’re learning and reinforce lessons in a variety of subjects.
I’ve added space to these Christmas drawing for kids pages to add writing. Little learners can use this space to practice writing letters, numbers, or completing copy work. Older kids can get creative by inventing short holiday stories to go with their drawings.
It’s a great way to practice creative writing, sentence structure, and spelling with your kids over the holidays.
How to Draw Christmas Trees
A Christmas tree drawing would make a super cute holiday craft this year! I’ve included a page just for creating your very own Christmas tree.
After drawing a tree, kids can tell you about their favorite ornament, how they would decorate a tree for their bedroom, or invent a story about a Christmas tree that comes to life in the space provided at the bottom of the Christmas drawing for kids page.
Then, extend the lesson by learning about evergreen trees and the history of Christmas trees with your kids in The Solstice Evergreen: History, Folklore and Origins of the Christmas Tree* by Sheryl Ann Karas. This beautiful picture book will teach your little learners about the origins of the Christmas tree and its significance in a variety of countries around the world.
Santa Drawing Activity
Why not make a Santa drawing for Christmas to include in your letter to Santa? You can even use these printable Christmas drawing for kids pages to write your letter to Santa right underneath your child’s picture of the big guy.
It’s a great way for kids to practice letter writing and using the proper format for letters. Plus, kids will get really excited about writing their own letters to Santa complete with a creative Christmas drawing too.
Don’t forget to mail your letters to Santa! The United States Postal Service has a North Pole Post Office you can mail letters to and receive a response. That’s the perfect incentive for getting reluctant writers to give this Christmas drawing and letter their very best effort.
Create a Christmas Ornament Drawing
This printable Christmas drawing for kids page will give your little learners an ornament keepsake to show for their creative efforts. Christmas drawing for kids is a fun way to celebrate the season with family and friends.
You can use these printables to encourage all the kids at your holiday gathering to get creative and make some memories to share.
Then, have the kids work together to invent a holiday story about all their special Christmas ornaments. Finish the evening by reading the story aloud to parents and grandparents for an extra special treat you’ll all remember for many years to come.
