Simple Nativity for Little Hands Coloring Page

Color choices

Simple nativity colors can begin with the broad robes, using warm gold, muted blue, and earthy brown. Continue with the shelter beams and manger in related wood tones, then choose soft cream or pale yellow for the straw and swaddling cloth. Finish the star with bright yellow, and use deeper shades on the staff, head coverings, and robe edges for clear contrast.

Star and Straw Pattern

Color the pointed star and jagged straw with a repeating light-and-dark pattern. Echo the pattern on the shelter beams or robe borders.
