Step inside on Christmas Eve with this Santa by the fireplace coloring page. Santa is crouched beside a cozy hearth, carefully placing a gift, while three stockings hang from the mantel and a decorated garland is draped above. A small fire flickers among a few logs in the fireplace, completing the snug indoor scene. With a fireplace, stockings, garland, and Santa all in one picture, there is lots to color, making this a satisfying page for kids who like a full setting rather than a single figure. The stockings are a perfect spot to use three different colors. Hanging stockings by the fire is an old custom said to come from a story about Saint Nicholas dropping gold into stockings left to dry. Print it on US Letter or A4 and let the fire glow with reds, oranges, and yellows.

Coloring Tips

Glowing fire — layer red, orange, and yellow in the hearth so the flames look warm and bright.
Three stockings — give each hanging stocking its own color so the mantel looks cheerful and full.
Brick by brick — use a few shades of red or brown on the bricks instead of one flat color for a cozy look.
