16 Santa Templates and Templates
These Santa templates are built for easy crafting, with clear outlines that cut out well. Santa appears in many moments from his busiest night. He laughs a big belly laugh, rings a jingle bell, waves hello, checks his scroll, carries a tower of presents and sits on a stool with a gift. Other templates have him holding a wreath, a heart-decorated stocking, a present or a toy train. There is a plain outline, a simple version and a cute cartoon Santa for little kids too. One fun way to use them is to glue cotton balls onto the beard and hat trim for a soft, three-dimensional Santa. You can also cut out the shape, tape it to a craft stick and make a puppet for retelling holiday stories. Classrooms sometimes hang a row of Santas along a hallway, each colored a little differently. A classic Santa suit is red with white trim and a black belt, but kids can try a green or blue suit, which is how some older illustrations showed him.
From a simple face to a sleigh ride
Simple Santa and Cute Santa are easy pages with big shapes and bold outlines, and Simple Santa shows only the face, which suits the youngest kids. Fun Santa and Santa Outline are medium, since the sleigh runners, candy cane stripes, gift bow and little toys peeking from the sack add smaller areas to color. Together the set covers every age at a holiday party.
Christmas colors and party ideas
Classic red and white suit the suit and hat, with a gold buckle, black boots and rosy cheeks. A peppermint striped candy cane, a brown sack and bright wrapped presents add extra cheer. Kids can color a page while writing a letter to Santa, cut out Simple Santa as a mask, or hang their finished pictures as holiday decorations around the house.
