Santa coloring pages

Nine sheets of the same cheerful figure doing nine different things. Santa waves with a sack of gifts, feeds hay to two reindeer, climbs into a chimney pot, ties a ribbon on a parcel, reads a child's letter in his armchair, holds a small bird on his palm, bakes star cookies with Mrs Claus and checks a very long list.

The big Santa face and the bird on his hand are drawn with thick bold lines and suit a three-year-old. The baking sheet and the parcel-wrapping table are full of small things and hold a longer sitting. Red and white are only two of the choices. A blue or green coat is just as good, and giving every parcel its own pattern turns one printed sheet into a picture nobody else has.
