Children Hanging Stockings by the Fireplace

Two children stand at a fireplace mantel, each holding up a Christmas stocking. The boy on the left wears a sweater and sneakers and has a stocking with a snowflake design. The girl on the right wears a sweater, skirt, and boots, and her stocking has a heart on it. Below them are a fire with logs and a basket filled with more stockings, including dotted and star designs. A leafy garland with berries and a large bow hangs above the mantel. This printable page works well for practicing patterns: invite kids to choose matching colors for the sweater cuffs, basket weave, and stocking stripes, then count how many stockings they can find.
