Color & Tell
Crayon marks don’t have to be perfect.
Little Shepherd
I’m Little Shepherd—color slow; God’s story is the bright part.
How Color & Tell works (tap to expand)
Color each scene, tap Save, then—when every scene is saved—open Watch My Story to see your own pictures tell the Bible story. On phones and tablets, the story cards scroll sideways—swipe to browse. Parents: everything stays in the browser on this device; if storage fills up, use Clear saved stories under the progress cards.
One Quiet Moment
One slow breath. One verse. Then pick your story.
“He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.”
Psalm 23:2 (KJV)
Lord, thank you for this story. Help me learn something from it today. Amen.
What is one thing in today’s story that makes you glad God is real?
When you finish, tell someone — or just remember — one thing from the story you want to keep.
Choose your story
These five are the gentlest first doors. Each label is a feeling — pick the one that matches today.
Ages 3–4 with a grown-up: begin with Safe — Jesus & the children or Wonder — Creation. Color one scene, say one short line, then stop while the joy is still there. After Easter (or any Sunday you want resurrection hope without a sermon), try Hope — Empty tomb—four quick scenes with small KJV tags.
Choose one big, simple scene. Name one color, say one short line about Jesus or creation, then finish while the joy is still there.
Color one scene, say one verse line, then stop while it still feels fun.
Finish a whole story over a few sittings, then watch the slideshow together.
Color one story as the response after a plan day, Family Armor, or a read-aloud story card.
