Nativity Coloring Pages

20 free printable PDFsReligious

These Nativity pages tell the Christmas story from start to finish. Mary rides a donkey to Bethlehem, Joseph searches for a place to stay, and the Holy Family gathers in the stable. Baby Jesus sleeps in the manger beneath the Bethlehem star. An angel appears to the shepherds, angels sing above the stable, and shepherds come to visit. The Three Wise Men follow the star and present their gifts. Animals gather around the manger, and a few pages frame the scene inside an ornament or wreath.

Choosing Nativity Coloring Pages

For young kids, try Baby Jesus sleeping in the manger, the donkey peeking into the manger, or the little lamb beside Baby Jesus. They're gentle and simple.

Sunday school teachers can color the pages in story order, from Mary's journey to the Wise Men's gifts.

The nativity inside a Christmas ornament or wreath makes a lovely card or decoration. Bethlehem under the Christmas star has more detail for older kids.
