A giant Christmas candy cane with wide diagonal stripes, a bow tied around its middle and three stars floating nearby. The stripes are the whole game: red and white is the classic, but green and white, or any two colors a child likes, work just as well, as long as the alternation holds all the way around the hook. That bend is where kids usually skip one, so it is worth a quick check before the marker goes down. A free printable drawing quick enough for a coloring corner at a Christmas party or a five minute break during the holidays. Softer, and wearing a hat instead of stripes: the Christmas teddy bear.
Coloring ideas for this page
- Red and white, strictly alternating, including around the curve of the hook.
- Green and pink if you would rather it looked like a sweet than a classic.
