About this coloring page
Four teachers sit in a circle with open scrolls while twelve-year-old Jesus speaks from the center. Mary and Joseph appear in the archway behind him, relieved to have found him among the temple courts. The Jesus in the Temple coloring page makes Luke 2:41-52 readable at a glance without adding words to the scrolls.
Warm stone colors fit the columns and patterned floor, while different robe colors keep the seated figures from blending together. Leave the scrolls pale so they remain easy to identify. A sharp pencil helps with the lamp chain and tile lines; crayons work well across Jesus's robe and the broad doorway.
Use the printable PDF after a Sunday school reading or in a homeschool study of Jesus's childhood. Ask children to find Mary and Joseph before discussing why they were worried and what surprised the teachers. Older students can write one question they would have asked in the temple on the back.
