Cut and Color Christmas Worksheet

Teaching Ideas

Use this worksheet during December art centers, morning tubs, or small-group fine-motor practice. Start by having children identify each shape—circle, triangle, square, and diamond—before they begin cutting. Encourage them to cut slowly along the dotted lines, using “open and close” motions with their scissors.
After cutting, kids can color the holiday pictures for extra creativity and motor development. You can also extend the activity by having students sort the shapes, glue them onto construction paper, or use them to create a Christmas collage.

This page works beautifully as a quiet work task, early finisher option, or a fun holiday-themed warm-up.
