• With your black crayon draw a circle the size of a dime just above the center of the paper.
• Add a small hill (curved line) on either side of the circle.
• Draw a steep hill on top of each small hill. Add circles in these spaces(eyeballs).
• Make fluffy clouds on top of each steep hill (eyebrows)
• Add sides to the face, higher than the clouds.
• Put a line across the top.
• Staring at the top, make a fluffy beard down to the bottom of your paper and back up to the other side.
• Draw lines up on each side of the head and a line across (to make the trim on Santa's hat.)
• Now starting on top of the hat, draw up and across the top of the hat, down the side and then back up to the bottom of the trim.
• Add a ball at the bottom of the hat.
• Draw a line to the left and a line to the right from Santa's nose to form a moustache.
• Take out your red crayon and make a smiley mouth for Santa. Color his hat red. Leave the trim and ball white.

I always cut these out and mount them on red paper and display them for Christmas. Many times I have had my children had speech bubbles where Santa is saying HO HO HO or Merry Christmas. I hope you enjoy this great art project. Sue Biehle Earlimart Elementary, California
