Coloring Activity
- The Promise of a Child Coloring Page
- Crayons, colored pencils, or washable markers
Give a coloring page to each child, along with crayons, colored pencils, or washable markers to share.
Lead a discussion using the questions below as children color their pages.
The Savior Is Born: Color a scene from the Superbook video.
1. What promise did God make in the Garden of Eden after Adam and Eve sinned? He promised to send a child to save us.
2. What is happening in the scene on your coloring page? The angels of heaven and the wise men have come to see Baby Jesus and worship Him.
3. Who announced to Mary that she would give birth to God’s Son, the promised child and Savior? The angel, Gabriel.
4. Gabriel told Mary that the Holy Spirit would overshadow her and make it possible for her to have a baby. Why do you think the promised child couldn’t be just any human baby but must come from God? The baby had to be pure and without sin, which means it could only come from God and not from a man.
God did what humans could not do. He kept His promise through generations of people. God loves us, and all of His promises remain firm and true forever!
Allow the children to share their finished pictures with the class.
