Activities to Do With Gingerbread Coloring Pages
Don’t let the fun stop once the coloring is done. You can repurpose these sheets into creative holiday crafts that the whole family will enjoy. Here are some easy ideas to try.
Create a Holiday Garland
Print out several simple gingerbread man pages. Have your kids color them and cut them out. Punch a hole in the top of each head and string them together with twine or red ribbon. Hang this festive bunting across the fireplace mantel or a doorway.
Design Your Real Cookies
Use the blank gingerbread outlines as a “blueprint” for your actual baking. Let kids experiment with marker colors to plan exactly how they want to decorate their real cookies later. It saves on wasted frosting and helps them organize their design ideas.
Make DIY Gift Tags
Shrink the printing scale to 25% or 50% so the images come out small. Color them in, cut them out, and tape them to wrapped presents. You can write the recipient’s name on the gingerbread man’s tummy for a personalized touch.
Gingerbread Stick Puppets
Print the characters on heavy cardstock (or glue the paper to a cereal box). After coloring and cutting them out, tape a popsicle stick to the back. Kids can put on a holiday puppet show from behind the sofa.
Custom Place Settings
Keep the kids busy while you cook holiday dinner. Let them color a page for every guest. Write the guest’s name at the top of the sheet and use it as a placemat, or cut out the character to place on the napkin.
3D Paper Village
Color the gingerbread house pages and cut them out. Glue the cutout to a toilet paper roll or a small cardboard box so it stands up. If you make a few of these, you can create an entire paper gingerbread village under the Christmas tree.
