pencil crayon artwork of the nativity scene

In the heart of a starlit night in Bethlehem, the Nativity scene unfolds with a gentle serenity, capturing the moment of Jesus's birth. The stable, bathed in the soft, golden glow of a single lantern, stands as a humble setting for this divine event. The wooden beams of the manger cast gentle shadows, adding depth and warmth to the scene, while the straw on the ground glimmers under the lantern's light, creating a cozy bed for the newborn King.

Mary, dressed in robes of soft blues and earthy browns, cradles baby Jesus, swaddled in cream-colored linens that catch the light, emphasizing His purity and innocence. Joseph, in tones of olive and tan, stands protectively beside them, his face alight with awe and wonder. Surrounding them, the shepherds in their simple, rustic garb of muted greens and grays, gather with expressions of reverence, while their sheep, fluffy and white, add a touch of playful innocence to the scene.

Above, the night sky, a canvas of deep midnight blue, is pierced by the brilliant Star of Bethlehem, its rays shining down in hues of radiant yellow and soft white, guiding the wise men and their camels who are adorned in rich purples, royal blues, and glimmering golds, bearing gifts of great significance.

This Nativity scene, with its palette of contrasting yet harmonious colors, invites children to explore the story of Jesus's birth through their own creativity, filling each figure and element with color that reflects the miraculous joy and peacefulness of that holy night.

About the Artist/Author:

Hello! I'm Leanne, the creative mind behind coloring.ws. I love nothing more than enjoying a warm cup of tea and a quiet day with a good friend. Here’s a bit more about me:

Things I Love:

Drawing: My happy place is with a pencil in hand, bringing ideas to life on paper.
Early Childhood Education: I absolutely adore those early, eager-to-learn years with kids. Their curiosity and enthusiasm are infectious!
History: Exploring the past helps me understand the present and dream about the future.

Things I Have a Love/Hate Relationship With:

Gardening: I like to think I have a green thumb, but it has a few brown speckles. My plants and I are working on it.
Animals: I adore my pets and they bring me so much joy, but oh, the chores! Why can’t they clean up after themselves?

I know that while the coloring pages are largely for kids, many of you visiting the site are educators and caregivers. I’ve tried to share some interesting trivia tidbits and fun facts to make your visit enjoyable too.

Happy coloring!
