Santa Relaxing in a Rocking Chair with a Book

Santa Claus sits back in a wooden rocking chair with his legs crossed, holding an open book in both hands. He wears a fur-trimmed hat, a long coat with fur cuffs, and big boots, and his long beard falls over his chest. He looks relaxed, almost sleepy, as he reads. To the left stands a decorated Christmas tree with round ball ornaments, candles in holders, bows, and strands of beads draped across the branches. A few wrapped presents with ribbon sit at the base of the tree. This free printable page works well for a quiet afternoon activity. Try coloring the tree ornaments in lots of different colors, then ask kids to guess what story Santa might be reading and draw the book cover on a separate sheet of paper.
