Monkey Holding Ornaments Beside Decorated Christmas Tree

A big fluffy Christmas tree fills the page, topped with a shining star that has rays drawn around it. Thick, puffy garlands wrap across the tree in wide bands, and round ball ornaments, oval ornaments, two icicle-shaped ornaments and lots of little stars and dots hang between them. The tree sits in a simple round base. In the bottom left corner, a smiling cartoon monkey with a tuft of hair, a bow tie, big boots and a long curly tail holds a small box of ornaments, ready to add more. The large open shapes are easy for younger kids, and the small stars leave detail for older ones. Try coloring the ornaments in a pattern, like red, gold, blue, then repeat, and let kids decide which ones the monkey should hang next.
