Christmas Mandala with Eight Wrapped Gift Boxes

Eight wrapped presents sit in a ring inside a big circle, each one tied with a ribbon and a large bow. The gifts take turns between two looks: some are covered in small X shapes, and others have diagonal stripes. Every box has a wide ribbon crossing it, so the bows point in different directions around the ring. In the middle there is a round frame holding an eight-pointed star, surrounded by a larger star shape and a diamond outline that the gifts rest against. The lines are clean and the spaces are a good size, so it works for kids who are getting comfortable with smaller details. Try coloring all the X-pattern boxes in one set of colors and the striped boxes in another, so the alternating pattern stands out. Print it for a quiet holiday table activity or a classroom break before winter vacation.
