  Our FREE Passover: Colouring Pages Pack is 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 Seder plate sheet to talk about the different symbolic foods and their meaning in the Passover story.

  • 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 Passover, such as 'Seder plate' and 'Matzah'.

  • Display Aid: The completed and colourful sheets make a lovely addition to a display board about Passover, showcasing the children's artwork and their understanding of the festival's symbols.
