About this Bible story
In Numbers 22, God uses a donkey to speak to Balaam. It’s a surprising and memorable moment that teaches us about listening to God. The verse says, 'Then the LORD opened the donkey’s mouth.' This story is great for kids to learn about obedience and the unexpected ways God communicates.
“Then the LORD opened the donkey’s mouth.”
How to Use These Coloring Pages
During the coloring activity, ask the kids, 'What do you think Balaam felt when the donkey spoke?' This question helps them connect emotionally with the story. Remember to emphasize the importance of listening to God, like when Balaam didn’t initially understand the message. Have plenty of crayons ready, and consider a follow-up discussion on how God can use anything to reach us.
