Christmas Mandala With Four Stars and Children

Four large stars are arranged around a central pinwheel shape inside a round wreath-like frame. Each star has a small child tucked against one of its points, with a pointed crown on the head and a scarf or ribbon trailing from the star's tip. The children sit at the top, right, bottom, and left of the circle. The outer ring is made of twisted ribbon, with four bows tied at evenly spaced points. The swirling center has curved segments that look like a spinning pinwheel, and the large star shapes leave plenty of open space for coloring. Try coloring the four stars in different warm or metallic shades, then use one shared color for all the ribbons and bows so the circle feels balanced. This printable page also works well for talking about symmetry and counting by fours, since the children, stars, and bows all repeat around the center.
