One of the most exciting times of the year is putting up the Christmas tree. One of the most dreaded times of the year is putting up the Christmas tree!

No, you havn’t read that wrong. One of the things I love the most is also one of the things that I dread the most.

Before kids, it was fun, relaxing and completed with a glass of wine in hand and nibbles on the side.

Now it’s a task completed with two excited but inpatient children. It’s combined with trying to juggle getting the decorations sorted, trying to avoid breakages whilst keeping them occupied long enough that they don’t get bored.

To make matters worse, we have a real tree every year. This therefore involves going out and buying the tree. Then we have to set it up in the house, and clear up the mess before we can even think about decorating it.

I have contemplated purchasing a fake tree for the last few years, but once the tree is up, I do really love the smell of it. It’s at that point that I seem to forget all about the drama before hand.

One of the things that I have learnt however is that I need to occupy the kids whilst the tree is being put into position in the house. If I don’t they are under the feet whilst trying to balance a 6 foot heavy tree into the tree stand.

Oh yes, it’s all fun and games!

The Perfect Activity To Keep The Kids Entertained at Christmas

The perfect Christmas activity certainly doesn’t need to be extravagant.

If however you are looking for an activity that will keep the kids occupied whilst you have a job to do (like putting up the Christmas tree), then the activity needs to be enticing enough that the kids will stay out of the way long enough to get the tree sorted ready for them to decorate.

Once the tree is in place and the lights are on, the kids can decorate to their hearts content. Getting to that stage however is ultimately what causes the stress!

The Best FREE Santa Coloring Pages

This year I have an almost 3 year old and a 7 year old. I created these Santa coloring pages as one of my “go to activities”.

My 7 year old is at the point where she wants to complete the perfect masterpiece.

My 3 year old is at the point that he wants to do what his sister is doing, but obviously has a lower attention span and can’t complete the task as well. Hence I created four different sheets so that he could work his way through them and keep him entertained.

So my gift to you this Christmas is that you can do the same.

Of course you don’t need to use them when the tree is put up, but if you have an event that the kids need to be entertained for a while, then these Santa coloring pages can be your “go to”.

My daughter actually spied these Santa coloring pages as soon as they came off the printer. She immediately pleaded with me to color one in. I could hardly say no could I.

She sat for ages perfecting her masterpiece and already chose which one she was going to do next. It’s a good thing that there are still three designs to go!
