    This free printable stocking template is a great way for young children to improve their scissor skills, hand-eye coordination, finger strength, and handwriting.

    No matter which version of the craft you use, your child or student will get to make his or her own Christmas stocking and practice tracing and writing the word "stocking."

    If you're looking for an easy way to keep your kids or students busy while getting into the holiday spirit, be sure to grab the Christmas Crafts Bundle! You'll get 10 different crafts with a total of 22 pages for one very low price. The bundle includes a paper elf craft, Santa, a sleigh, and more fun Christmas crafts.

    Craft supplies needed for the paper stocking craft

    You probably already have most of the materials needed to make your fun stocking craft. Here's what you'll need:

    • Your free templates (look for the download link lower down in the post)
    • Printer access and paper or card stock
    • Child-safe scissors
    • Glue stick
    • Crayons or colored pencils

    How to make a stocking cut and paste raft

    Making your simple craft is easy, even for a child's hands. Here's what to do:

    Grab your PDF file from lower down in the post, then print one copy of the page you want to use for each child making the craft. There are two versions of the stocking craft template - one in color and the other in black and white.

    โ€‹Have your child color the stocking before cutting out the pieces, if you're using the coloring page version. Instead of coloring the stocking solid red, your child may want to draw designs or glue on decorations.

    Cut out each of the template pieces.

    Using the reference picture as a guide, glue the heel, cuff, and toe pieces in place to make the completed Christmas stocking.
