Four ways to use one reindeer
The first page is a large reindeer outline for tracing onto felt, card or wrapping paper, or for colouring. Page two has two smaller reindeer with a fold-back stand so they stand up on a shelf or table setting. Page three is an antler headband with two antlers and ears. Page four splits a reindeer into body, head and four legs for a moving puppet.
Make the stand-up reindeer
Print on card stock at actual size. Cut along the solid lines, keep the stand attached and fold it back along the dashed line so the reindeer leans on it. Children can colour the reindeer first and add a name to the base, which makes it a place card for a holiday table or a decoration for a classroom window ledge.
Antler headband for a class party
Cut the two long strips, tape them into a band that fits the child's head, then glue on the antlers and ears. The antlers have a straight tab along the bottom, so they stand upright instead of flopping. One sheet makes one headband, so print one per child.
Jointed reindeer and paper doll fun
The jointed reindeer uses five paper fasteners at the marked dots, so the head nods and the legs swing. If children enjoy stand-up paper figures, the related paid pack has two matched paper doll bases with fold-back stands, sixteen dresses, an outfit-planning form and instructions.
