More about these Bible coloring pages
The Flight to Egypt coloring page features scenes from a vital moment in Jesus' early life. My 6-year-old loves coloring the image of Mary carrying baby Jesus while Joseph looks around for safety. In Matthew 2:13, the angel instructs Joseph to 'Take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt.' This simple command shows how important family and faith were for them during that time. As they color, kids can think about the reasons for their escape. On a busy Thursday afternoon, I used these coloring pages during our homeschooling session. We discussed why it was necessary for Joseph and Mary to flee. The kids were eager to share their thoughts about protecting loved ones and what they would do in a similar situation. This activity sparked great conversations about faith and family values.
