More about these coloring pages

Last Tuesday afternoon, my 2-year-old grabbed some crayons and got excited about the empty tomb coloring page for toddlers. Each page shows parts of the story, like the rolled-away stone or the angel at the tomb. I love how these pages let little ones experience Easter. As we colored, I reminded her, 'He is not here; he has risen.' (Matthew 28:6) It sparked such joy! After coloring, we had a snack break with bunny-shaped cookies. It was a sweet moment together, celebrating Jesus' victory over death.
