Big and Small Christmas Tree Coloring Page

Coloring page of a big and a small Christmas tree side by side

Like a little tree family, a big and a small Christmas tree stand side by side in this design. This coloring page plays with size and proportion and is ready to print for free β€” a lovely design for talking about big and small.

Why two trees are more fun than one

The size difference between the two trees invites you to style them differently β€” the big one richly decorated, the small one simpler and more delicate. For kids, this design is also a nice opportunity to think playfully about size and comparison.
