As we arrive at the grand finale, Day 12 of our “12 Days of Free Christmas Resources,” get ready to get silly and collaborative with our Christmas Character Building activity! 🎉🎄
Day 12: Christmas Character Building Extravaganza
For our closing act, we’re bringing you a delightfully fun and exciting Christmas activity that sparks creativity and fosters teamwork. The main aim? Cut up different characters to create new ones! Whether your students tackle this individually or in groups, the goal is to mix and match to craft entirely new festive friends.

Ways to Use Christmas Character Building:
- Individual Creation: Each child can cut and paste to build their own unique Christmas character. It’s a wonderful opportunity for personal expression and imaginative exploration.
- Group Collaboration: Encourage teamwork by having students work together to create characters. Pass around the pictures within a group, with each person adding a component (head, body, arm, etc.) before passing it to the next. Witness the magic unfold as unique characters take shape collaboratively!
- Pass and Build: Start a picture by sticking down a head, pass it to the next person who adds a body, and so on until the original picture transforms into a quirky masterpiece. It’s a fun and unpredictable way to celebrate the spirit of collaboration.
- Character Description: Once children have built their creative Christmas characters, this can be used as a writing prompt for descriptive writing, storytelling, a diary entry, anything you desire!
As we wrap up this festive series, we hope these resources have added a touch of magic and joy to your classroom. May your students’ creativity continue to flourish, and may the spirit of collaboration carry them into the holidays.
Wishing you a grand finale filled with laughter, Christmas character creations, and the satisfaction of a series well-enjoyed.
Happy teaching and happy creating!
