More about these Bible coloring pages
The 'Creation Day 1 Light Darkness' coloring page brings to life the first day of Creation. My 6-year-old really enjoyed coloring the bright sun shining over the dark shadows. As we colored, we talked about how God saw everything He made and said it was good: 'God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (Genesis 1:31). It was a great way to help her understand the importance of light in our lives. With six different images, kids can highlight the beauty of God's creation. The pages include illustrations of light overcoming darkness, which really sparked my daughter's curiosity. She asked how light can be so powerful. We spent the afternoon discussing how God created everything with purpose, and these pages are a wonderful tool for that.
