Santa Offers a Bone to Sleeping Puppy

Santa Claus leans forward with a cheerful, squinting smile, holding a big bone out in one hand while the other hand rests near a small puppy. The puppy is curled up asleep on a round stool with its chin tucked down, floppy ears, a little dark nose, and a few spots on its back and tail. Behind them is part of a Christmas tree with scalloped garland lines, and a tall door frame stands on the left. Santa wears his pointed hat with a pom-pom, a fluffy beard, a coat with fur trim and big round buttons, and tall boots. The fur edges and the beard have lots of small curves, so crayons or colored pencils work nicely. Try giving the puppy a soft brown or gray coat, then pick two bright colors for the tree garland so it stands out from the background. This free printable also works well for a quiet holiday table activity.
