Free Bible Coloring Pages
Where can I print free Bible coloring pages?
Kids love coloring, either on plain paper or pictures that have already been drawn. However, coloring books can often be expensive.
There are so many free coloring pages that you can find on the internet, and all you need is a printer and some paper.
If you're telling your kids the story of Noah's Ark or Jonah and the whale, why not let them color in a picture of the scene that you are painting in their minds?
Free Bible coloring pages are perfect for young children, and you can print them out for children at Sunday school classes as well as your own children.

Ideas for using coloring pages at Sunday school
Bible coloring pages are perfect to use at Sunday school, and they're a great last minute option. If you can't think of anything to do with the kids at Sunday school, you can quickly print off some coloring pages of various Bible stories.
- Coloring competitions (the best one will be stuck on the wall for a week)
-Tell the kids to color in their picture and then tell everybody else one thing about that particular story
-Cut the page into eight pieces and have the children piece it back together (this is best if it doesn't involve any coloring)
