A coloring hour for Christmas
Print the Christmas tree room in Regular and Bold, and hand out a page or two at the table or wherever people are. Bold has thicker lines and fewer tiny details, easier to see and easier to finish.
Read the Story Starter once, then wait longer than feels comfortable. Candles, strings of lights, or both: every answer is a good one, whichever holiday it belonged to.
The pack holds more than Christmas. Candles, a snowy window, and a cup of cocoa suit Hanukkah, the new year, and any table where people keep different holidays.
“How did your house light up for the holidays?”
Three steps, about an hour
- Print both versions of the same drawing, Regular and Bold, on plain letter paper.
- Hand out a page or two to each person, wherever they are: the table, a lounge chair, a bedside.
- Read the Story Starter aloud while they color. Then wait.
Bold has thicker lines and fewer tiny details, easier to see and easier to finish. Everyone colors the same picture.

Good to know
What is a Story Starter for?
It's one question to read aloud while they color, so there's something to talk about. It's about their own life, never a quiz. If the room is happy and quiet, skip it.
Which version should each person get?
Choose by the person and the day. Regular suits a long, quiet sit. Bold has thicker, darker lines and fewer tiny details, so it's easier to see and finish. Same picture either way, so no one gets "the easy page."
Can volunteers and families use the pages?
Yes. Staff and volunteers can print pages for the people you serve, their families, and visitors. Families can color along, and finished pages belong to whoever colored them.
