I love finding new ways to make cutting practice exciting! These activities turn simple cutting sheets into amazing holiday adventures! Here are my favorite ways to use these Santa’s beard scissor-cutting pages with my kids!

Beard-Growing Competition

Get those scissors ready for this fun racing game! I set a timer for 3 minutes, and my kids try their best to cut along the dotted lines of Santa’s beard. The excitement builds as they carefully snip away! We say encouraging words like, “Santa needs his beard trimmed before Christmas!”

When the timer rings, everyone shows their work. We look at how neat and steady their cutting is. My kids love seeing whose Santa has the most perfectly trimmed beard! The best part? They want to try again and again to improve their cutting skills!

Santa’s Workshop Crafts

The actual holiday magic begins here! After cutting out the beards, we transform them into fluffy masterpieces! We grab cotton balls, white paper strips, and lots of glue. My kids love making Santa’s beard come alive in 3D!

The crafting possibilities are endless! Sometimes, we sprinkle glitter for a snowy effect, and other times, we add sequins to make Santa extra festive! These crafts become beautiful decorations for our home and make the sweetest handmade gifts for family members!

Match-the-Emotion Game

This game brings so much joy and learning to our cutting practice! I lay out all the different Santa faces on our table. Then we mix up all the cut-out beards like a puzzle! It’s time to play matching detective!

My kids giggle while trying to find which beard belongs to which Santa! We discuss why Santa looks excited in one picture and surprised in another. “Look at his star-struck eyes! Which beard do you think goes with this happy Santa?” The conversations about feelings naturally flow as they sort and match!
