More about these Bible coloring pages

Yesterday afternoon, my kids and I colored the triumphal entry crowd waving palm branches together. My 10-year-old was fascinated by the palm branches, asking why they were so important. We talked about how the crowd celebrated Jesus, shouting 'Hosanna in the highest!' (Matthew 21:9). Each of the 6 images showcases joyful faces and waving palms, making it fun to color while learning. During our homeschooling session, I noticed my 8-year-old really focused on the details. We used a mix of crayons and markers, and she loved adding her own flair to the pictures. It turned into a great opportunity for discussion about what it means to celebrate Jesus and how the crowd felt that day. They even practiced their own shouts of 'Hosanna' as we colored together!
