Cozy Christmas Moments Coloring Pages for Preschoolers

Coloring page story

On the night before Christmas, Father Christmas was putting on his big red coat. "Oh, dear!" he rumbled, his big belly shaking like a bowl full of jelly. "A button is missing!"

Right in the middle of his coat, there was a little empty space where a big, shiny black button should have been.

Mrs. Claus came bustling in with a needle and thread. "Don't you worry, my dear," she said with a smile. She found a button that shone like a beetle's back and swoosh, stitch, pop!, she sewed it on tight.

"Perfect!" boomed Father Christmas, giving his tummy a pat. "Now the cold wind can't sneak in!" And with a coat all cozy and buttoned, he was ready for his journey.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

For best results, print this page on medium-weight paper or cardstock to prevent markers from bleeding through. Use your printer's 'black and white' or 'grayscale' setting for clear, crisp lines. Print a few copies in case of happy accidents!

Recommended Tools

Large, chunky crayons are perfect for little hands to grip. Washable markers are also a great choice for vibrant colors and easy cleanup. Remember to always put the caps back on your markers so they don't dry out!
