More about these Bible coloring pages
While coloring, my 5-year-old pointed out the angels on the ladder and asked, 'Are they going to heaven?' I loved how this led to a conversation about God's promises. One of the images shows Jacob sleeping with the ladder above him, which perfectly illustrates the moment when 'He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth' (Genesis 28:12). My kids also enjoyed using bright crayons to color the scenery around Jacob's dream. These pages are great for sparking curiosity about the Jacob and Esau story while encouraging creativity. Just last week, I printed a few copies for our church group, and the kids were so excited to share their artworks.
