We love making agamographs and this festive product is the latest addition to our collection.

There’s something quite magical about an agamograph, two perspectives, two fun shots (or 4 if you have a 4 season agamograph or the life cycle of a butterfly).

With Christmas approaching, we rolled up our sleeves and designed a gorgeous printable agamograph template to keep kids busy over the holidays.

This festive version is perfect for young children as it features two easy to colour designs, a reindeer head on one side and a beautiful gift box on the other.

Color with your favorite coloring tool – we highly recommend colored pencils as they make the designs pop.

How to Make a Christmas Agamograph

What you need:

  • one of our christmas agamograph templates which you can get at the end of this tutorial
  • heavier printing paper (regular printing paper is fine, but we prefer heavier)
  • printer
  • coloring materials
  • drag
  • optional scoring tool (or an alternative like the skewer we normally use)

To make things more festive, you can also use red glitter glue to make the reindeer nose sparkle.

Follow the step-by-step instructions

Print out our template (you can find it at the end of this guide).

Color your image. We recommend using a contrasting color for the background to make your image really pop.

Once you’ve finished coloring, cut out the agamograph.

To make the folds crispier, it’s best to score them before folding – we use a ruler and skewer the folds.

Markers are best for creating neat tools – you can buy plastic ones that are safe for children to use.

Once you have marked all the folds (or skipped that step ;), it’s time to fold them.

Fold accordion style – from one end to the other.

Press the folds down, creasing them to make them crispier as you go.

Fold all the way to the other end…

Done – now all that’s left to do is move it from side to side to show both images.

Hope your kids enjoy making this Christmas agamograph.
