5 Interesting Activities With Free Printable Nativity Coloring Pages

The activities below will help children enhance their coloring experience, provide creative opportunities, and reflect meaningfully on the Nativity story.

Design Christmas Cards

This activity is a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday season and share the joy of the Nativity story. To start the activity, you will need to select coloring pages and print them to a size that will fit on the card.

Once your child has finished coloring, cut out the characters and details on the page. To create a card base, fold the cardboard in half or get creative in many different shapes.

Next, glue the cut-out pictures onto the card and let your child write a message inside. So you have yourself homemade Christmas cards without spending a dime.

Make An Advent Calendar

With this craft idea, kids can count down the days until Christmas in the most exciting way. The first thing needed is to prepare 25 envelopes or small bags.

After coloring the Nativity pages with different scenes and characters, cut them out. Next, number 25 small envelopes or bags from 1 to 25.

Tape nativity images to the front of each envelope or bag and make sure each day has a different nativity element. You can create a hanger by attaching string or ribbon to the wall and using clothespins to secure the envelopes.

Write or print small notes, and quotes or include small gifts each day and place them inside the corresponding envelope or bag. Starting the current day, you create the calendar and open an envelope or bag every day until Christmas.

Create A Nativity Scene Diorama

First, you choose nativity coloring pages with various scenes and characters you want to include in your diorama and let your kids color them. Then, cut out the scenes and characters from the coloring page.

You will have to prepare a sheet of cardboard to make the bottom of the box. Arrange and glue colorful nativity scenes onto the base, creating the background for your diorama.

Consider decorating your box to create a complete Nativity backdrop if your box has sides. To create an open front diorama, you cut out one side of the box and then place the cut-out characters on top of the base, arranging them to recreate a nativity scene.

Turn Into Puzzles

This activity can be held in class or at home. With the colored Nativity images, you glue them to each piece of cardboard according to the appropriate size.

Lightly draw a grid on the back of the cardstock to create the puzzle pieces. The size and complexity of the grid will depend on your preferences and the level of difficulty you desire.

Use scissors to cut along the grid lines, creating individual pieces. Shuffle your pieces around to create your Nativity scene once your pieces are cut and ready.

Make Nativity Ornaments

Any of our Nativity coloring sheets are perfect for decorations. It’s important to choose a site that suits your needs.

Start by coloring the nativity scenes and characters on the selected coloring pages. Then, cut out colored nativity figures and glue them onto a piece of cardstock for durability.

Once the coloring pages are securely attached to the cardstock, cut the decorations to the desired shape. You’ll make a small hole at the top of each page, where you’ll string the ribbon or twine for hanging.

Finally, hang ornaments on your Christmas tree, wreath, or around your home. Also, consider giving them to friends and family as a thoughtful holiday gift.

Whether used in shared activities with loved ones or making DIY projects such as cards, dioramas, puzzles, or decorations, Nativity coloring pages are sure to create moments of joy.

When coloring, we not only create art but also contribute to honoring faith in God, and celebrating the upcoming Christmas festival atmosphere. Once you’ve completed some of your favorites, be sure to share them on our Facebook and Pinterest pages for all the world to see.
