DoodleGrove Elf Coloring Pages
Pointy ears, curly shoes and hats with jingle bells: these elf coloring pages follow Santa's helpers through the busiest season of the year. The easiest pages are one big elf face, a baby elf with a rattle, a jumping elf and a sheet of elf hats, shoes and bells. Then the work begins. Elves wrap presents, paint a wooden nutcracker, build a dollhouse and pack toys on a conveyor belt. Others bake gingerbread, sort letters for Santa, brush a reindeer in the stable and load the sleigh. There is time for fun too: sledding, a snowball fight and carols under a street lamp. These elf coloring sheets mix simple shapes for little kids with busy workshop scenes for older ones. Every page prints on US Letter and on A4.

The pages
In Santa's Toy Workshop 9 pages
Hammers, paintbrushes and spools of ribbon fill Santa's workshop. Elves build a wooden train, sew a button eye on a teddy bear, paint a nutcracker and pack toys on a conveyor belt. Kids can pick the colors for each finished toy, and the dollhouse and conveyor belt pages have the most small parts.

Snow Days at the North Pole 11 pages
Time off from the workshop means sledding, building a snowman, catching snowflakes and a snowball fight between two forts. A few elves spend the day with animals, feeding a baby reindeer or riding one through a moonlit forest. Shades of light blue and lavender give the snow a soft, wintry look.
