10 Craft Ideas to do With Ten Commandments Coloring Pages
Once your children have finished coloring their Ten Commandments pages, don't let those beautiful works of art just sit in a pile! These easy and affordable crafts put them to good use.
1. Stone Tablet Standees
Cut out two large “tablet” shapes from gray construction paper or thin cardboard. Glue your favorite colored commandments onto these tablet shapes. Add a small folded cardboard stand to the back of each, allowing them to stand upright as a reminder on a shelf or desk.
2. Commandments Scroll
Cut your colored Ten Commandments into individual strips or a single long piece. Glue the top edge to a small wooden dowel or sturdy popsicle stick, and the bottom edge to another. Roll it up to create an ancient scroll, perfect for learning and display.
3. Mount Sinai Diorama
Build a simple mountain shape using crumbled brown paper bags or cardboard on a sturdy base. Cut out Moses and the commandment tablets from your coloring pages. Glue Moses near the peak, with the tablets displayed proudly, and add cotton balls for clouds to complete your dramatic scene.
4. Guiding Light Lantern
Form a cylinder from stiff cardstock or a clear plastic bottle (cut open and reattached). Cut out individual commandments from your colored pages and glue them around the outside of the cylinder, allowing light to shine through. Place a battery-operated tea light inside to illuminate these guiding principles.
5. Wisdom Wreath
Cut the commandments into decorative shapes or small rectangles. Glue these around a sturdy paper plate with the center cut out, or a cardboard ring, forming a “wreath of wisdom.” Hang it on a door or wall as a daily visual reminder of God's laws.
6. Ark of the Covenant Box
Decorate a shoebox or small cardboard box with gold construction paper, pipe cleaner handles, and a lid. Carefully cut out the commandment pages to fit inside the box. This creates a special “Ark” to safely store and honor the laws, just like in ancient times.
7. Pillars of Righteousness Mobile
Cut out each commandment and glue it onto individual, small cardboard rectangles or “pillar” shapes. Punch a hole at the top of each. Hang them with string from a clothes hanger or two crossed popsicle sticks to create a mobile that gently reminds us of foundational truths.
8. Commandments Bookmark
Cut sturdy strips of cardstock. Glue individual commandments or a selection of them from your coloring pages onto the bookmarks. Laminate them with clear contact paper or cover with packing tape for durability. They'll serve as a constant reminder as you read!
9. Moses' Staff Pointer
Find a long, thin stick or roll a piece of poster board into a sturdy tube. Glue cut-out commandment words or small tablet images from your coloring pages along the length of the staff. Use it as a fun pointer for Bible lessons or a decorative piece.
10. Ten Commandments Memory Match Game
Glue each commandment (cut into a distinct shape or rectangle) onto separate index cards or small squares of cardboard. Create a duplicate set of each. Flip them over to play a memory matching game, helping children memorize and connect with each commandment.
