Beautifully Decorated Christmas Tree With Presents Coloring Page

Here the same subject gets the beginner treatment. The tree is drawn with bold clean outlines, the ornaments are large and few, and the presents underneath are plain boxes with ribbon crossing them. Nothing is crowded, so a child of four or five can stay inside the lines without frustration. Look at the busier tree scene elsewhere in this collection if you want something that takes longer.

Big shapes invite big tools. Chunky wax crayons or a thick marker work well, and this is a good page for letting a young child pick ornament colors freely rather than steering them toward realism. A purple bauble beside an orange one is fine. If you want one guiding rule, suggest keeping the tree itself a single green so the decorations stand out against it.

Wrapping paper is worth a word while you fill in the presents. Most shiny gift wrap cannot go in the recycling because of the plastic or metal layer that gives it the shine. There is a quick test for it: scrunch a piece in your fist, and if it stays scrunched it is probably paper, and if it springs back open it is not.
