More about these coloring pages
As my 7-year-old colored the nativity holy family stable page, she pointed out how Mary 'wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger' (Luke 2:7). This coloring page captures such a tender moment, with images of the holy family surrounded by animals in the stable. Each scene offers a chance to talk about the love and humility of Jesus' birth. Just last week, we set up a little nativity scene at home, and the kids loved reenacting the story as they colored. They were so excited to add colors to Maryβs blue robe and Josephβs brown cloak. With six different images, this printable is perfect for our Christmas arts and crafts.
