Looking for some fun printable Christmas crafts? We've got several adorable ones here just for you! The best part is that they are completely free!
The Christmas season is close! And we love fun Christmas crafts around here. Especially Christmas crafts for kids.
They're good for younger kids, like preschoolers, because they act as both coloring pages and as a fun Christmas craft idea.
They'll just need some help from the grown-ups to cut out the different template pieces.
But older kids enjoy them as well, as they're fun to put together.
These are great for a classroom or for families to make on Christmas eve.
Or you could use them as part of a Christmas advent calendar activity. They're a great way to keep the kids entertained and a fun activity for the whole family.
And if you enjoy these free Christmas printables, be sure to look at our printable Christmas trees as well. It's a fun activity where you can build a cute little paper tree!

Printable Snowman Craft
Our first printable Christmas craft is the cute little snowman. He may be one of our favorite snowman crafts!
He's easy to make and perfect for kids who only want to color the accent pieces.
Printable Elf Craft
The second printable we have here is this printable elf craft. This would be a super cute activity for an elf on the shelf to bring.
Printable Penguin Craft
This little penguin craft has a little scarf and Christmas hat to wear. You can color the scarf and hat any color you like!
And of course, the penguin could be colored in Christmas colors instead of typical black and white.
Printable Reindeer Craft
I love this little printable paper reindeer craft. You can make several to have all 8 of santa's reindeer, and give them black noses.
Then create one with a red nose and call him Rudolph!
Printable Gingerbread Man Craft
This adorable little gingerbread man is another one of my personal favorites. He's just too cute.
We have more gingerbread man templates if you are loving the gingerbread theme too.
Printable Santa Clause Craft
Of course, no Christmas craft collection is complete without the big guy himself.
This printable Santa craft features a cut-and-paste Santa Claus.
Printable Polar Bear Craft
This free printable template features a polar bear craft. This little guy is too cute and comes with a fun Christmas sweater and hat to match!
We also have cute polar bear templates to check out as well.
Printable Elf Hat
This printable elf hat craft is another great craft Elf on the Shelf.
If you have an elf visiting your house this holiday season, he can bring this fun hat craft with him!
Printable Santa Hat
Our next printable Christmas craft is this Santa hat.
It's a traditional Christmas hat but includes a Santa belt around the brim.
It's a good one to pair with the Santa Clause printable craft.
Printable Christmas Hat
This little hat comes with antlers. It's a cute take on a typical Christmas hat. The cool thing is, if you don't want antlers, you don't have to add them.
You can create a more traditional hat if desired.
