Christmas 2D Shapes Printable Worksheets & Activities

---

  This year, bring  holiday magic AND solid geometry learning into your classroom with my Christmas 2D Shapes Activity Pack  -a carefully designed, ready‑to-go resource that blends the joy of Christmas with essential shape recognition and early years maths skills. Whether you're planning math centres, holiday rotations, or a fun end‑of-term activity, this pack makes it easy, engaging, and meaningful.

• 10 different Christmas‑themed activities and games, from cut‑and‑paste crowns to bingo, data recording, shape‑trees and more. All built around 15 fundamental 2D shapes.
• 110+ pages of content including colour and black‑and‑white versions; fully printable, minimal prep required.
• Activities that cater to varying levels of skills - ideal for Prep, Year 1 and Year 2 students.
• Full variety: hands‑on manipulatives (crowns, cut‑and‑paste shapes), games (Bingo; “4 in a Row”), data & graphing tasks (counting shapes, recording), and colouring / “colour-by-shape” worksheets.
• All shapes you’ll need, from circle, square and triangle to octagon, crescent/moon, parallelogram, trapezium/trapezoid and more. Includes multiple naming variations so you can match your curriculum.

✅ Makes Shape Learning Concrete & Meaningful

Rather than abstract diagrams, the shapes in this pack appear as decorations, crowns, trees, and festive items. Kids instantly see purpose and meaning. This makes geometry more relatable and memorable.

✅ Supports Diverse Learning Styles

With a mix of cut‑and‑paste, hands-on craft, game play, data tasks and colouring, the pack engages visual, kinesthetic and logical learners alike.

✅ Easy to Implement - Zero Planning, Minimal Prep

Just print and go! No need for complex prep or extra materials. Ideal for busy teachers, relief lessons, or holiday rotations when time is short.

✅ Ideal for Differentiation & Mixed-Age Classrooms

Because the pack includes a range of difficulty levels (e.g. simpler 7‑shape tree vs. extended 14‑shape version; basic bingo vs. full 15-shape bingo; simple cut‑paste vs. graph‑based data tasks), you can easily differentiate for mixed-ability classes or have older students challenge younger ones.

• Holiday/Christmas maths centres or rotation days
• End-of-term/year wrap-ups, combining festive fun with curriculum reinforcement
• Small-group or whole-class geometry lessons
• Homework or take‑home activities over school holidays
• Relief/substitute teacher days (pre-prepped and ready to run)
• Early finisher tasks or maths warm-ups in the lead-up to Christmas

As a teacher myself, I know how difficult - and time‑consuming - it can be to find meaningful maths activities that aren’t just “more worksheets.” I wanted something ready-to-print, curriculum-aligned, and genuinely fun for kids, especially in the busy holiday season.

Once I started using festive decorations, I saw a real difference. The kids were motivated, engaged, and excited to learn about shapes without realising they were working on geometry.

If you’re looking for a fun, effective, no‑prep resource to teach/review 2D shapes this festive season - one that’s also curriculum-relevant, flexible, and kid-loved - this Christmas 2D Shapes Pack is a great fit. It blends the best of holiday excitement with foundational geometry skills.

Add a bit of Christmas cheer to your maths teaching this year, and let learning sparkle!
