Do you need a heartfelt Christmas card? Maybe forgot a card and need a last-minute solution? There is nothing better than a quick and easy, but oh-so-personal hand-colored card!
Let’s Get Festive with Printable Coloring Christmas Cards!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
The holiday season is upon us! Whether you are in a last-minute scramble or looking for ways that your kids can take control of the Christmas cards this year, printable cards are a favorite solution.
Not only do they take the place of traditional cards and save money, but they replace cards with a keepsake that can be cherished for years to come. As an added bonus, they will also keep your kiddos busy while you tackle the rest of your Christmas to-do list (or even just cook dinner!).
PIN FOR WHEN IT’S TIME TO COLOR:
We absolutely love Christmas craft activities, and there are some beautiful Christmas cards on our Christmas Crafts for Kids list, but these alternatives are quick and easy, do not require anything other than the paper they are printed on and some crayons, and do not require parental support! They are a great way to make your own Christmas cards.
