Our reindeer clipart gallery brings Santa's whole team together in 12 pictures: reindeer, Santa Claus with his sack, a Santa hat, a sleigh, a busy elf, candy canes and a gingerbread man next to his frosted house. All twelve have see-through backgrounds and land on a gift tag, a slide or a December newsletter with clean edges.
Hit Copy to paste a reindeer right into your document, or Download PNG to keep it for later. Curious how the reindeer will sit on a dark page? Switch the preview behind it to chalkboard and see. Pair this set with the Christmas tree clipart, and if your class wants to color Santa, print a sheet from the Christmas coloring pages. For snowy days after the holiday, the winter clipart carries on the theme.

Classroom Uses for Reindeer Clipart and Friends
- Story units: The gingerbread man and his house fit a week of reading. Use them on a sequencing page where kids put the story in order.
- Science: The realistic reindeer opens a lesson on Arctic animals. Compare the antlers, coat and hooves with a picture from our animal clipart page.
- Math: Give each child a reindeer and a set of paper antler points to count, add and subtract.
- Gift swaps: For a secret Santa or gift swap, print the Santa hat on each tag and write the giver's clue on the back.
Color Pairings and Paper Picks
Red and white pop against forest green or kraft brown, so the Santa, the hat and the candy canes look best there. The retro sleigh and the watercolor house feel softer on cream or pale blue. Black and white pieces, like the leaping reindeer and the gingerbread outline, look sharp on gold or silver paper.
Print stickers on full sheet sticker paper and cut around each shape with a small white edge. For ornaments, print on cardstock, punch a hole at the top and loop red string through. Gingerbread on brown cardstock looks almost good enough to eat.
