These free printable Christmas pattern colouring pages do double duty! Keep the kids busy colouring in the fun Christmas patterns, and when they are done you can use them as wrapping paper!
Everyone will love making some colour your own wrapping paper for Christmas!
I am a terrible wrapper.
I want to wrap beautiful gifts, with fancy ribbons and extra embellishments. I want people to ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ over the wrapping before they even find out how awesome the gift is. I want to be a good wrapper, but I’m not.
My paper is never straight, I can’t fold nice corners, sticky tape hates me, and when I try and make my gifts look fancy they just end up looking silly.
So this year I am enlisting help to make my gift wrapping looks super awesome… I am getting my kids to colour in the wrapping paper!
What could be more ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’ worthy than individually coloured gift wrap, no two presents will look the same!?!
