Get ready for some merry creativity! This worksheet invites children to imagine the exciting moment when Santa comes down the chimney and then bring that scene to life on paper. Perfect for classroom art time, holiday centres or a quiet moment at home, it combines festive fun with essential drawing skills.
What’s inside the worksheet:
A large blank drawing space where kids can depict Santa, the chimney and the setting of his arrival.
A simple chimney outline at the bottom to anchor the scene and prompt thinking about position.
Clean layout with minimal distractions, letting children focus on creativity and storytelling through drawing.
(Optional) you might add a caption or writing line if desired, to extend into writing.
Why this is useful:
Encourages imaginative thinking — kids visualise Santa’s arrival and construct their own narrative.
Supports fine motor skills and spatial awareness — children decide how to place Santa, presents, chimney, maybe reindeer or rooftop.
Taps into holiday engagement — the Christmas theme adds excitement and relevance during December.
Works for many ages and settings — can be used in classrooms, homeschools, after-school programs or at home for quiet art time.
How to use it (step-by-step / tips):
Print one worksheet per child (or display digitally if using tablet/interactive board).
Introduce the prompt: “Imagine Santa is about to come down the chimney — what’s going on? What does the rooftop look like? Are there gifts? Is the family asleep? What time is it?”
Provide drawing materials (pencils, crayons, markers) and allow kids time to sketch their scene in the blank area. Encourage them to think about setting (night sky?), perspective, where the chimney is relative to roof, etc.
After sketching, let them add details and colour in their drawing — encourage creativity such as stars, moon, snow, sack of presents.
(Optional extension) Ask children to write one or two sentences about their drawing: “Santa is coming down the chimney to deliver….” This reinforces writing skills.
Display completed artworks in the classroom/home on a “Holiday Art Wall” or use them as part of a festive craft display — maybe mount them under a title “Santa’s Arrival”.
Variation: You might turn it into a storytelling activity — children present their drawing and describe what is happening just before or after Santa arrives.
Bring in the joy of the season and let kids’ imaginations soar! Print this worksheet, hand out the crayons and watch the magic appear as children draw Santa going down the chimney. A fun activity for home, classroom or holiday group — grab it and get drawing!
