More about these Bible coloring pages

When my third graders color these pages, they bring Solomon's story to life. One page shows Solomon making his wise judgment, while another illustrates God granting him wisdom. As we colored, I reminded them how Solomon asked God for 'a discerning heart' (1 Kings 3:9), and that wisdom is something we can all seek. After our lesson, I plan to display their artwork in the classroom to celebrate their creativity and understanding. With six different images, kids get to engage with the story while they color, making it a memorable activity for our Sunday school class. It's a wonderful way to reinforce the lesson on seeking wisdom in our own lives.
