Looking to learn how to make a paper Santa hat? I have a simple Santa paper hat craft printable for you that you can use with kids of all ages.
A nice addition to your collection of Santa crafts for kids to make in December as they count down to Christmas, this headband comes with a simple template with two options. The pre-colored Santa has two skin color choices (so you can also create a black Santa, if you want) and a black and white option for kids to color.
Turn making this Santa paper hat into a fun Christmas coloring activity for the entire family.
If you are a teacher, save the paper crown for whenever there is some time in the class and you need a quick holiday craft or activity for preschool or kindergarten.
Kids will color, scissors cut and tape together pieces – all activities that will help with their fine motor skills.

Oh, no! Santa is stuck in the chimney and can’t get down to leave his presents. This cute paper stuck Santa craft would make a great school hallway decoration or a Christmas bulletin board. The printable is easy to use by kids of all ages.
Help kids review shapes with this simple Santa craft that uses six shapes: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, oval, hexagon. A nice way to combine Christmas craft activities with shape unit learning. Kids will cut and glue different shapes piece by piece to create Santa.
Crafting with paper plates is so much fun and when you add yarn to those crafts, it makes it even more interesting. For this Santa craft, we used white yarn to make Santa’s beard and it turned out really cute. This can be a great first sewing project for your preschooler.
