Read the full guide

The cottage first

The Gingerbread cottage with a candy roof has 98 squares on the easy grid: a red roof with green candies over brown walls. White icing is the paper. Squares that print empty inside a cookie are its icing, so nothing white needs a crayon.

Color by number Christmas gingerbread man

Two gingerbread people are here, the Running gingerbread boy and the Gingerbread girl. Open More options, choose Detailed 24 by 24 and the boy gains a bow tie, pink cheeks and an icing smile in 220 squares. The Cookie cutter is the one sheet with no white squares.

Brown is in all 8 detailed keys and 6 of the 8 easy ones: check the brown crayons first.
The easy Running gingerbread boy needs 3 crayons: brown, black and red.
The Gingerbread star and the Gingerbread heart print as cookies, brown with candies, not as a plain star and heart.

Questions and answers

How many colors are in the gingerbread house sheet?

Four on the easy grid of the Gingerbread cottage with a candy roof: red, green, brown and yellow. The detailed grid keeps those four and adds pink for the door.

How is white icing shown on the sheets?

As empty squares. White squares print with no number, so the boy's icing smile, the star piped inside the star cookie and the ring around the heart are squares left as paper inside the brown.

Are there other Christmas color by number pages?

Yes. Christmas color by number has Santa, a sleigh and a tree with gifts, and Christmas math coloring worksheets put a problem in every square.

How this list was compiled: Our own pixel pictures, drawn square by square for this site on 12 by 12 and 24 by 24 grids in October 2026. Nothing is traced, scanned or copied from clip art, and no picture shows a character from a book, a film or a show. White icing is the paper: squares left empty inside a cookie. The color and square counts in each description were counted from the finished grids. Licence: own work
