Our FREE Christmas: Epiphany Colouring Sheets are incredibly versatile and can be used in a multitude of ways across various early years and KS1 environments:
Focused Adult-Led Activity: Use a specific colouring sheet as a starting point for a discussion. For example, use the 'stable scene' sheet to tell the story of the Three Wise Men's arrival and the gifts they brought.
Child-Led Invitation to Play: Leave a selection of the sheets and various colouring tools (crayons, pencils, felt-tips) in a continuous provision area. This allows children to choose a sheet that interests them and explore the theme at their own pace.
Fine Motor Skills Development: The act of carefully colouring within the lines helps to strengthen hand muscles, improve pencil grip, and enhance hand-eye coordination.
Vocabulary Building: As children colour, an adult can use the opportunity to introduce and repeat new vocabulary related to Epiphany, such as 'Epiphany', 'Wise Men', 'stable', and 'gold'.
Display Aid: The completed and colourful sheets make a lovely addition to a display board about Epiphany, showcasing the children's artwork and their understanding of the festival's symbols.
