Ornaments shaped like apples, pencils and books hang on the Christmas tree in this Merry Christmas teacher coloring page. Four strings of round beads loop across the branches, two small stars hang among the ornaments, and a large star sits on top. Four wrapped gifts with bows stand at the base of the tree. Above it, "MERRY CHRISTMAS TEACHER" fills three lines of hollow capitals, with stars and dots scattered around the words. It suits ages 5 and up.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "a Christmas tree decorated with ornaments shaped like apples, pencils, books and stars, with a star on top and a few wrapped gifts under it, and the words Merry Christmas Teacher in big hollow letters above the tree, drawn with clean outlines, the tree and its gifts kept small enough to leave a wide white margin below them, with the whole drawing kept above an empty white margin at the bottom of the page".

How to use it

Children can color it in the last week before winter break and give it to the teacher with a card. The tall gift boxes on each side of the tree have room for a name, so a child can write the teacher's name on one box and their own name on the other. A class can also tape the colored trees in a row along the hallway as a holiday display.
