"Thy Sleep Shall Be Sweet" primer coloring page

Description of The Coloring Page: scripture, "Thy Sleep Shall Be Sweet." Proverbs 3:24

The characteristics of primer coloring pages designed to teach children from ages 1-7:

• Large, typeface/font, often all Capitals or all Lower Case letters are used separately in primer coloring pages.
• Letters used may also be colored, this helps the child to remember each letter's shape.
• Pictures are very simply drawn.
• Primarily objects and people are used to illustrate ideas, although patterns are included in fewer examples.
• Generous spacing between the drawn elements is included so that children who have trouble coloring will still be able to color between these elements.
• Generous spacing also provides young children the opportunity to practice coloring more because it takes them longer to fill in the space.
• Very simple and short memory verses are frequently used in Bible primer pages.
