More about these Bible coloring pages

My 7-year-old spent an hour coloring the wheat and tares coloring page for kids last week. She was fascinated by the idea of good wheat growing alongside the weeds. As she colored, she asked me why Jesus used this story, and we talked about how 'Let both grow together until the harvest.' (Matthew 13:30) teaches us about patience and understanding. Each of the 6 images allows kids to visualize this important lesson, showing both the healthy wheat and the mischievous tares. With bright crayons scattered across the table, my kids engaged with the story and created their own interpretations of what the field might look like.
