Elf Doodling with an Oversized Pencil

A cheerful elf stands with one hand on his hip and the other arm stretched out, holding a big pencil with a few scribbled lines coming off the tip. He wears a floppy pointed hat with a folded brim and a round pom-pom at the end, plus a pointed collar, a plain long-sleeved top, mittens with cuffs, and simple pants. His eyes glance off to the side and he has a small curved smile. The large outlines and open areas make this an easy page for younger kids to color. Try red and green for the hat and top, then pick a bright color for the pencil and add stripes on its bands. It would also work well as a lead-in to a Christmas list or a short note-writing activity at home or in class.
