In our preschool class, we love learning about Noah's journey and the olive leaf dove. One morning, while coloring, I asked the kids what they thought the dove saw when it flew out. They were eager to share their ideas! In Genesis 8:11, we read, 'There in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf!' This sparked a wonderful discussion about new beginnings and hope. The coloring pages feature a dove, olive branches, and scenes from Noah's story, making it both engaging and educational.
