More about these coloring pages

Every Christmas season, we look forward to the fun traditions. My daughter, Emma, loves seeing the Advent calendar come to life with colors. Each day, we count down to Jesus' birthday together. With this 'joy to the world' (Psalm 98:4) theme, kids can color different pictures that remind us of the Christmas story. I set this up during snack time, and she was thrilled to color the nativity scene! The chunky crayons fit perfectly in her tiny hands. These pages are great for keeping little ones busy while we talk about the meaning of Advent. I often pull them out during church services or family gatherings. The six images are simple enough for her to complete on her own. Plus, there's something so special about sharing this time of year with your little ones!
