Easy To Use Free Christmas Tree Prewriting Printable
Christmas is always a fun time and there are so many great themes. One fun theme has always been Christmas trees! I love them. I’m always looking for ways to put them into activities we are working on.
And now I have a fun Christmas Tree Prewriting activity you can use with your kids.
It is a fun way to change up the prewriting that kids are working on. They can now practice a few lines on Christmas Trees.
The Christmas Tree Prewriting Printable is a great addition to the Christmas printables and prewriting printables on the site.
So what is pre-writing?
Pre-writing is the skill to build to work up to writing letters and other types of writing. It also teaches the direction that we read.
You can start a lot of those skills with fine motor activities with playdough and other small motor movements. But a lot of those skills are working up to prewriting with lines. Then, work on more fine motor skills that help to do better with writing and reading later in life.
You start out with thick prewriting lines and work to thinner prewriting lines. Then to prewriting patterns that work into writing letters.
Christmas Tree Prewriting Printable
Each of the pages has several lines of prewriting in the shape of a Christmas Tree. They are simple and easy to trace and see the shape.
You have four different prewriting lines for kids to trace in the tree shape.
Christmas Tree Book to Read with the Christmas Tree Prewriting
We have several favorite Christmas tree books. We love Mr. Willowby’s Christmas Tree. I don’t think a year goes by that we don’t read it at least five or six times!
That book would go great with this prewriting activity. You can have fun tracing and then coloring your Christmas trees!

How to use the Christmas Tree Prewriting Worksheets
Trace the Lines on the Christmas Tree
The most basic way to use this page is to just trace the line. You can use anything you want. You can see that we used colored pencils on the lines. You could also use crayons.
Trace the Lines on the Christmas Tree With Watercolors
If you have an older child that needs more fine motor work but tracing lines with pencils is easy. Switch it up and use watercolors. The brush adds a different way to work on fine motor.
Place Small Items on the Lines
If you want to do something hands-on them use items you might use pom poms. I love using pom poms for fine motor you can use big or small ones. You could even use tweezers to place the pom poms.
Reuse the Christmas Tree Prewriting Printables
If you want to reuse the sheets then put the page in a sheet protector and use dry erase markers on them. That way you can re-use the page over and over.
Decorate the Lines with Christmas Stickers
If you want something different use Christmas foam stickers. You can use any size. We have several foam sets that we just use over the years. They work great for lining the lines.
