More about these Bible coloring pages

During lunch yesterday, my 9-year-old excitedly shared how Joseph had dreams that showed him God's plans. The coloring page features scenes of Joseph's dream, including his brothers and the sheaves of wheat. I love using this 'Joseph son of David, do not be afraid' (Matthew 1:20) moment to teach the kids about trusting in God's direction. We often gather around the kitchen table with crayons and markers, and these pages keep them engaged while learning. It's a great way to connect the story and art in our homeschool. They really enjoy coloring the different scenes and discussing what they mean in the Bible story.
