Brrrr! Winter’s setting in – but if you’re looking for some printables to entertain you and the children as the nights draw in, our winter favourites are below:
With Christmas over and the new year at the starting block, we thought we’d list a few of our favourite printables for January. Some are new and some are old favourites but our site is getting so big that we thought a little list might help make sure there’s no mid-winter magic you’ve missed.
Are you looking for our latest Christmas printables? Well, you can find them on the Christmas area of our site, or just click on the links which interest you below.
There are reindeer letters, Santa letters written with Covid in mind, letters for your Christmas Eve box, elf printables and more.
We wish you a truly magical Christmas, and all the best for the new year.
You may think it’s a way off but before you know it, it’ll be that time a year again!
Sure, it’s an inner groan from those of us who dread the Christmas shopping but on the children front, it’s hard not to smile when you think of the upcoming magic. We’ve been doing this long enough to know that right this minute there are children out there wondering if they’ve been good enough (and if not trying to do better rather hurriedly!) for a certain someone to bring presents this year.
It’s a great time, therefore, to encourage your little ones to use their imaginations… Far up in the North Pole the Christmas clock is ticking; the elves have started to wrap up their presents, the reindeer have begun getting into shape for the long journey on Christmas Eve, and the Nice List is sparkling into life. Will your little one’s name magically appear on it?
With this in mind and for all those who just can’t wait, here are our five favourite free early Christmas printables. In our house, we use them to build excitement early on, so that by the time Christmas rolls around, our children can almost hear the sleigh bells. We hope you and yours enjoy them too.
If your child has been good, it’s never too early to let them know they’re on the nice list! As well as being a printable image you can write on, this one also comes as an editable PDF, which means you can just hit the appropriate button (underneath the main image) and type straight onto the certificate.
Not quite what you’re looking for? Check out the rest of our Christmas certificates here.
Our before Christmas letters have long been popular with anyone who wants to find out what magical things have been going on at the North Pole. A Kitchen Full of Reindeer is one of our favourites and it’s completely free from this site. (Check our Terms of Use.) It’s a magical, funny letter, telling the story of how all the reindeer have ended up causing havoc in Santa’s kitchen.
Oh – and if you’re folding/rolling up your letter and want the back to look pretty, you can always print one of our Christmassy letter-back designs on the other side.
We hope you enjoy our letters, but please remember they are only for personal use – it’s not legal to sell then or use them for any other commercial purposes. Their copyright remains with the author.
This is a great note for anyone who wants to let their children know that a couple of Santa’s elves are popping by (in secret of course) to see if they’re being good. Use it as early as you like to encourage good behaviour and for extra effect, print and fold a little envelope from Santa to put it in.
Your child will need a mirror to read this top-secret message – but that’s all part of the magic.
Another certificate from Santa – but this time one’s just for November.
This cute certificate is a great reward for a child wh has been good all year. It’s such a great feeling to know the elves have noticed!
You can either print this certificate and add your child’s name or personalise it by downloading it as an editable PDF. If you’re in a rush and would rather not bother with a name at all, there’s a version without one here.
Happy new year! We hope 2021 brings much joy and magic to you and your little ones.
January is always a quiet month for our site but for those of you who have taken the time to pop by (thanks!), we’ve collected together what we think are the most useful printables for this month. Many are old favourites but there are one or two new resources as well. Just scroll down and you’ll find them below…

Although dwindling in popularity compared to Halloween, the 5th of November is still celebrated in many parts of the UK. We’ve created a handful of printables with this in mind and whether it’s “Bonfire Night”, “Guy Fawkes Night” or “Fireworks Night” in your house, we hope you find them useful.
If you’re looking for a printable version of that famous Guy Fawkes Night chant, ours are below. They’re a great way to add to the 5th of November decorations.
If you’re little one has been good enough to make it onto Santa’s Nice list this year, these free printables might come in handy. They’re everything we’ve got – old and new – that lets a child know he or she has been good enough, (or very nearly good enough), for Christmas gifts.
Please remember all resources are for personal use only. Thanks.
Of course you might want to write your own note from Father Christmas to let your little on know they’ve made it onto his Nice List. If so, our blank Christmas notepaper could come in handy.
For more, check out the area of our site which is completely dedicated to Christmas. We’ve been moving all our free Christmas printables there bit by bit and if we have any new ones, that’s where they’ll be.
Now that Christmas is over, it’s time to write those thank you notes. For very young children or those who are easily bored, it can help to have a printable note to fill in. If that’s what you’re looking for, ours are below. Good luck and all the best for the new year!
Of course, you might be looking for some blank notepaper instead, so that your little one can write their own thank you message from beginning to end. If that’s the case, you might find this printable notepaper useful:
Looking for printables for your Burns Night celebrations? We’ve put all our favourite Robert Burns and Scottish themed decorations (new and old) here in one place. We hope you have lovely evening on January 25th. Here’s to one of Scotland’s finest poets!
Burns Night is a celebration which is held to remember the Scottish poet, Robert Burns. It takes place either on or near his birthday, which is January 25th.
Today, it is celebrated by Scottish people all over the world, often by way of eating a supper which includes a haggis, neeps and tatties. A favoured drink on Burns Night is whisky. Selections of Burns’ poetry are often read out loud, which given his rythmic style and wonderful talent for conjuring up images full of emotion, is a real treat.
If you’ve never been to a Burns Night supper and you get invited to one, go! It’s a great night out.
