Fun Elf Ribbon Race Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

In the workshop, two young elves, Flick and Flack, had a silly competition. Santa had given them each a giant roll of sparkly ribbon. "Ready, set, GO!" shouted a chief elf. Their job was to race to the other side of the room and tie a perfect bow on two practice presents under the workshop's training tree. Flick was fast, but his ribbon got tangled. Flack was slow and careful. As they both neared the finish line, a little bell on the door jingled. It was Santa! He laughed and declared them both winners, because helping get ready for the holiday celebration is a team sport.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The 3-5 age group will love the clear action and funny situation. The retro style uses simple, readable shapes and expressions that are easy for young children to understand. The composition tells a clear story of a race.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Wow, look at these elves go! They are in a race. Can you color one elf's suit in red and the other in green? Look at the long ribbons! You can give them stripes or spots. One ribbon is all tangled up on the floor—that's a fun shape to color! Don't forget to color the presents under the tree and give Santa his big, jolly red suit.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Given the 'action' in this scene, kids might color with a lot of energy! Printing on a slightly heavier paper or light cardstock is a good idea to prevent tears. Ensure your printer settings are on 'high quality' to get crisp, clean lines.

Recommended Tools

Felt-tip markers would be great for making the ribbons and elf suits really bright and bold. Crayons can be used for the background elements like the tree and the workshop walls to make the characters pop.
