More about these coloring pages

Last Sunday, my third graders were thrilled to use the Christmas star coloring page Sunday school lesson. Each child picked their favorite image, and I could hear their excitement as they colored the star, imagining the wise men's journey. I reminded them, 'We saw his star when it rose' (Matthew 2:2), which sparked a lively discussion. The pages include a bright star, the wise men, and even a camel. These images are simple yet engaging, perfect for their little hands to color. After the lesson, we hung their artwork on the wall to remind everyone of the joy of Jesus' birth. It's a wonderful way to celebrate Christmas together!
