Getting ready
Age & adult help
The original catalogue requires an educator to review the story’s wording and illustrations before assigning a child age range.
Review the actual printable and passage before choosing it for your group.
What you’ll need
Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons. No cutting or gluing is assumed for a colouring sheet.
Time & preparation
Whole six-page colouring pack. Estimate 10–20 minutes per page; pages can be split across lessons.
Construction profile: 4–10 years. Story content prevents a confirmed child age recommendation without viewing the asset. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.
Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.
Printing tipsThe story behind the craft
Bible passage: 2 Samuel 11
David uses his royal power to take Bathsheba and then arranges Uriah’s death to cover what he has done. The account ends by making clear that David’s actions are wrong.
Main takeaway: Power does not excuse abuse, deception or the harm done to others.
While you colour
Choose one illustration and read the part of the passage it represents.
This passage needs adult-led selection and age-appropriate language. Keep responsibility with David rather than blaming Bathsheba for his choices.
With younger learners, name the visible people and actions together. Older learners can compare the picture with the passage and distinguish the text from an illustrator’s added details.
Questions to explore
- How did David misuse his power?
- Who was harmed by his cover-up?
- Why must a powerful person still be held responsible?
Common questions
What files are included in this download?
The download is a 6-page PDF: 21_DavidandBathsheba_2Samuel11.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.
Do I need to make a model?
These are six separate illustrated colouring sheets. Choose a scene to colour and discuss, or use the sheets over several sessions. They are flat pages, so no cutting or assembly is required. For a Bible reading to accompany this activity, use 2 Samuel 11.
Which pages should I print, and at what size?
The original PDF pages are A4 landscape. 21_DavidandBathsheba_2Samuel11.pdf: print the pages you want to use for each learner or group. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.
What supplies and preparation does this need?
Ordinary printer paper and colouring pencils or crayons. Choose one sheet at a time rather than expecting children to finish all six in one sitting.
What help might children need with this activity?
An educator should review the actual wording and illustrations before choosing this account for children. David uses his royal power to take Bathsheba and then arranges Uriah’s death to cover what he has done. The account ends by making clear that David’s actions are wrong. Read the panels or captions yourself first and decide how to explain the difficult parts for your group.
