Description

This cute Christmas-themed craft is based on the book When Santa Got Stuck in a Gum Tree by Jackie Hosking. Your students will love creating a Santa whose belt got snagged on a tree branch. The completed crafts can be hung up at home on a Christmas tree branch, a hook or a door knob!

 

Using the provided templates, students will cut and assemble their Santas. The templates can be printed on coloured or white card. If printing on white, provide time for your students to either paint or colour in the pieces before cutting and assembling. Once the Santas are assembled, students can add craft items, such as cotton wool or white pom poms to the trim of Santa’s hat, coat and boots and a yellow button or sequin to the centre of the belt.

 

Students will require the support of an adult to hole punch the left and right sides of Santa’s belt. Two black pipe cleaners or lengths of ribbon should be threaded and secured through the holes before being twisted or tied together above Santa’s head. Leave enough room so the decoration can be hung on a branch, a hook or a door knob. To create an eye-catching display of the completed crafts, showcase them around the included banner!

 

This engaging resource includes:

  1. Detailed instructions with a completed example.
  2. Santa templates.
  3. A colourful display banner.
 

Young students may benefit from having the templates enlarged to A3.
