Printable resource collection · Updated November 3, 2026
Build a small Christmas activity folder with a mix of puzzles, early learning and drawing or writing. These resources have different reading and writing demands. Offer two suitable choices at a time, and keep a non-holiday alternative available for children who prefer it.
What’s included: 10 downloadable worksheet and activity packs, each linked below. The number counts separate resources, not individual PDF pages. Parents and early-elementary teachers preparing Christmas activity folders.
Free download access: Ad-supported. Some visitors can try one free resource before newsletter signup; further resources require signup. Up to 4 different resources per rolling 24 hours. Preview each resource before choosing which one to unlock.
Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade
Start with a Christmas maze as a short, supported puzzle. Identify the start and finish, then let the learner explore the route.
Before you print: Use one page at a time and check the maze difficulty in the preview.
Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade
Choose a spot-the-difference page for a child who enjoys comparing pictures. Scan corresponding areas instead of jumping randomly between details.
Before you print: Model one comparison and let the learner explain the next difference aloud.
Preschool, Kindergarten
Use the holiday color-matching task to name and match the colors shown on the page.
Before you print: Read directions aloud and check that printed colors are easy to distinguish before assigning the task.
Preschool, Kindergarten
Name the shapes in the Christmas matching activity and ask the child to describe a feature before matching.
Before you print: Compare sides and corners rather than relying only on a shape’s position or color.
Preschool, Kindergarten
Choose a Santa’s cookies or elf toys counting task. Touch each pictured object once and say the final count together.
Before you print: Cover part of a busy picture if the child loses track, and check the number range in the file.
Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st grade
Say the names of the pictures on the beginning-sounds worksheet before asking the child to identify the first sound.
Before you print: Check that the learner knows the picture names and letter sounds used on the page.
Kindergarten, Preschool
Build a word with the gingerbread letter pieces, say its sounds and read the word before attaching the letters.
Before you print: Offer pre-cut pieces and model blending when the child needs support.
Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade
Choose a Dear Santa template and talk through the message before writing. A younger child can dictate while an adult records the words.
Before you print: Preview the writing space and choose a version that fits the child’s stamina and family traditions.
Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd grade
Choose a holiday write-and-draw prompt, discuss an idea, then draw before writing a related sentence.
Before you print: Accept a dictated sentence if handwriting is a barrier. Ask how the picture and words connect.
Kindergarten, 2nd grade, Preschool, 1st grade
Select one Christmas coloring page for a quiet activity. Invite the child to describe a detail or tell a short story about the finished picture.
Before you print: Coloring is an open-ended choice; it does not require a fixed answer key.
Open the preview and read the directions before downloading. Print only the pages you plan to use, check your printer’s preview for clipped edges, and use color when a task depends on identifying colors. Have pencils ready; cut-and-paste tasks also need child-safe scissors, glue and adult supervision.
Start with one activity. Read the directions together, model a single example, then let your child try. If reading, handwriting or cutting gets in the way of the main task, read aloud, take dictation or prepare the pieces first.
Ad-supported. Some visitors can try one free resource before newsletter signup; further resources require signup. Up to 4 different resources per rolling 24 hours. Each button opens the access steps for that specific resource.
No. This collection contains 10 separate resource packs. A pack may include more than one activity or file. Check its product page for the contents before printing.
Use the listed grades as a starting point and preview the actual task. Match the reading, number and motor demands to your child’s current skills. A supported activity can look different from independent practice.
