Advice To Teachers

If you make these free Christmas stencils outlines larger, then they are suitable for larger rooms like classrooms.  If made daintier and smaller, then you can use them with coloured food powders on cakes.  The stencils can also be used to make scenes and collages when coloured by individual children and amassed as a group work.  White snow paint can be used with them for windows or gold paint for table linen or trays.  You can also make them in black card and use coloured cellophane behind them to create stained glass effects for light catchers or classroom friezes. Enlarge the thumbnails and either print off whilst online, or save the Christmas stencils to your graphics folder or in My Pictures or in a special folder you make called Christmas.  You can also print them off at the size you wish using the printer set up guide and adjusting the scale.  You can also import these free Christmas stencils into a Microsoft Word document and enlarge or reduce them there by dragging the corners of the picture in or out and perhaps making a worksheet from them for class or nursery use.
