More about these Bible coloring pages

Last Wednesday, as I prepared for my lesson on the triumphal entry, I pulled out these coloring pages. With images of Jesus riding on a donkey and the crowd waving palm branches, they really bring the story to life. The kids will color while we discuss how they shouted 'Hosanna in the highest!' (Matthew 21:9) to welcome Jesus. Having a moment for them to express their creativity helps solidify the lesson. I remember my 8-year-old niece was so excited to color the donkey last quarter. Using these pages in class will help reinforce the importance of this event in the Bible. It's a free printable and perfect for our Sunday school setting, allowing the children to interact with the story visually.
