Christmas Wreath Coloring Pages

A Christmas Wreath is a special decoration we see a lot during the holiday season. It’s a round or circular shape, usually made from evergreen branches or artificial materials, and is often decorated with colorful items. You might see them adorned with sparkly ornaments, bright red and gold ribbons, pine cones, and even lights!

The tradition of hanging a Christmas wreath has been around for a really, really long time. It actually began with the ancient Romans who hung wreaths on their doors as a sign of victory and celebration. The Christmas wreath as we know it today, though, started in Germany a long time ago.

People used to light candles on these evergreen wreaths during the Advent season. Advent is a time leading up to Christmas when people prepare and anticipate the birth of Jesus. The evergreen branches symbolize everlasting life, while the circular shape represents God’s love, which has no beginning or end.

Today, we hang Christmas wreaths during the holiday season as a symbol of joy and celebration. You might see them on people’s front doors, over fireplaces, or even on lampposts in town. They’re a lovely and festive way to brighten up our homes and communities during the Christmas season.

So, the next time you see a Christmas wreath, you can think about its history! It’s not just a beautiful decoration, but a symbol of joy, hope, and the unending love of God.
