More about these coloring pages

While coloring the Ten Commandments Tablets, my 9-year-old asked, 'Mom, why are these rules so important?' We talked about how they guide us in our daily lives. The pages feature images of Moses holding the tablets as well as the commandments themselves. I let her use markers, which made the colors pop! As we colored, I reminded her of the verse, 'You shall have no other gods before me' (Exodus 20:3), and how that helps us focus on loving God first. The kids really enjoy these printable pages during our Bible study time, adding a fun touch to our lessons.
