More about these coloring pages
Last Saturday, my 7-year-old was excited to color the nativity star over Bethlehem. She loved how the star shone bright in the night sky, guiding the wise men. As she colored, she asked, 'Why did they follow the star?' This led to a sweet conversation about how God guides us. The page includes moments like Mary holding baby Jesus and the scene of the manger where 'she wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger' (Luke 2:7).
