If you’re looking for a decorate a stocking family activity to do around the holidays or a way to prepare a classroom for Christmas and give it a magical and festive look, this Christmas stocking craft will do the job.

We printed out Christmas stocking craft on colored paper and mixed it up with pattern paper but you can print it on white paper and have kids decorate it. Use glitter and pom poms or just color the paper stockings.

Also, kids can write their name onto the top piece.

If you do this in your classroom as part of the winter classroom party or any other winter day, you can hang the stockings by the cubbies. They will look so pretty!

We love Christmas crafts and have created many that can be done by kids as young as preschoolers, from this popular shape Santa to this reindeer craft.

How to make the paper stocking

The stocking craft template comes with two versions:

1. home template – cut out the patterns and trace them on corresponding colored paper.

2. classroom template – print the pattern directly on colored paper and cut them out.

This way you can easily craft with just one or two kids as well as with a classroom full of students.
