10 Craft Ideas to do With David And Goliath Coloring Pages
Once those fantastic David and Goliath coloring pages are finished, don't let them gather dust! These 10 easy and affordable crafts are perfect for putting your masterpieces to good use.
1. Goliath Standee Scene
Cut out your colored Goliath figure and glue him onto a sturdy piece of cardboard or poster board. Cut a small slit into a toilet paper roll, insert the cardboard, and glue it to create a stand. Now you have a fun, freestanding giant for storytelling or display!
2. David's Shepherd Pouch
Decorate a small paper bag (lunch bag size) with cut-out images of David and his sheep from your coloring pages. Glue a construction paper strap to the sides to make it wearable. You can even fill it with crumpled paper “stones” for a fun prop.
3. Slingshot Target Practice
On a large piece of poster board, draw a target with different point values. Cut out several small colored Goliath heads or figures from your pages and glue them onto the target as the bullseye. Use soft pom-poms or cotton balls as safe “stones” for aiming practice.
4. Courage Crown
Cut a long strip of construction paper to fit around a child's head, forming a crown base. Cut out images of a victorious David, sheep, or other heroic symbols from your finished coloring pages. Glue these cut-outs onto the crown, adding glitter or gems for extra sparkle.
5. Story Scroll
Glue several colored David and Goliath scenes onto a long strip of butcher paper or construction paper. Attach a popsicle stick to each end with tape or glue. Roll up your scroll to tell the story visually, unrolling each scene as you go.
6. “Stone of Faith” Jar
Decorate a clean, empty plastic jar or container by gluing cut-out images of David and his sheep around the outside. Encourage children to write brave actions, prayers, or things they are thankful for on small paper “stones” to place inside their “Stone of Faith” jar.
7. David's Harp Craft
Cut a harp shape from a piece of cardboard. Glue strips of your colored coloring pages onto the body of the harp for decoration. Attach a few rubber bands stretched vertically across the harp to create “strings” that can be gently plucked.
8. Battle Scene Diorama Box
Use an empty shoebox turned on its side as your diorama base. Cut out figures of David, Goliath, sheep, or soldiers from your finished coloring pages. Glue them upright inside the box, adding construction paper hills or blue paper sky to create a full 3D scene.
9. Goliath's Helmet Mask
Cut out the face of Goliath (or a generic giant face) from one of your colored pages and glue it onto a paper plate. Cut out eye holes and punch holes on either side of the plate. Thread elastic string or yarn through the holes to create a wearable mask.
10. Victory Banner
Take a long piece of construction paper or butcher paper. Glue large, colored cut-outs of David, Goliath, and other elements from your finished pages onto the banner. Add bubble letters spelling “VICTORY!” or “FAITH” and hang it up as a declaration of courage.
