How to Use These Coloring Pages
Ask your kids, 'What do you think baby Jesus felt like in the manger?' while they color. Highlight how Mary and Joseph cared for him, especially when 'She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger.' A great follow-up activity could be making a simple stable out of cardboard for them to play with after coloring.

More about these coloring pages
During our circle time last week, we used the nativity holy family stable coloring page for preschool, and it was a hit! The kids were especially excited to color Mary and Joseph next to baby Jesus. We talked about how 'She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger.' (Luke 2:7) while they colored. Itβs heartwarming to see their little hands working with crayons, bringing the Nativity story to life. The six images include the stable, the star, and even the animals. It kept my 4-year-olds engaged and smiling! After coloring, we shared our favorite parts of the story during snack time, making it a wonderful learning experience.
