More about these coloring pages

While we colored the shepherds and angels angels announcing gloria pages, my 10-year-old couldn't stop asking questions. The vivid images of the angels proclaiming 'Glory to God in the highest' (Luke 2:14) sparked a great conversation about why this moment was so special. With six different illustrations, kids can color the angel's message, the shepherds in the fields, and the joy surrounding Jesus' birth. My youngest, who's 5, loved using sparkly crayons to make the angels shine! These pages are a wonderful way to connect the joy of Christmas to our faith, helping kids remember the heartwarming story of the Nativity.
