More about these coloring pages

My third graders love hearing about how Jesus is the 'light of the world' (Matthew 5:14). This coloring page gives them a chance to express that lesson creatively. One image shows a shining sun, reminding them to let their light shine brightly. Another features children helping each other, emphasizing kindness. Just last week, I handed these out during our lesson, and I could see their excitement as they picked their favorite colors. We used a mix of crayons and colored pencils, which worked beautifully for the detailed designs. Each child took their work home to share with their families, spreading the message further. This free printable is a wonderful tool for any Sunday school teacher wanting to engage their students in the story of light.
