More about these coloring pages
‘They forced him to carry the cross’ (Mark 15:21) is a powerful reminder of Simon's role in Jesus' journey. My kids love these pages, especially the one where Simon looks determined while helping Jesus. It's a great way to discuss how we can help others, even when it’s hard. Just last week, my 9-year-old asked why Simon didn’t run away when he was asked to help. We spent time talking about courage and kindness. You’ll find six different images, each illustrating Simon's story in a way that kids can understand. I printed them out for a craft night, and they sparked great conversations about helping others. Using colored pencils or markers, the kids can really bring these pages to life while learning about this important Bible story.
