More about these Bible coloring pages

A few days ago, my 7-year-old was coloring the triumphal entry scene while I read the story from Matthew. She asked why everyone was cheering for Jesus, which led to a sweet talk about how He is our Savior. The page features children waving palm branches and Jesus riding on a donkey, capturing the excitement as they shouted 'Hosanna in the highest!' (Matthew 21:9). I love how coloring this page can open up conversations about faith and joy. With 6 images, it's perfect for our Sunday school class. On Fridays, I print these for our lesson, and the kids stay focused while coloring. They love using bright colors, and I provide chunky crayons which are easy for little hands to hold. Plus, it’s a free printable, so I can print as many copies as we need without worrying about costs.
