Polar Bear Facts Printable Coloring Page and Craft

For art these past few weeks we’ve worked on making some polar bears for homeschool, so I made a polar bear facts printable for you to download for your kiddos!

I realize it’s not a very exciting coloring page since polar bears are white and penguins are white and black. Ha ha. At least the coloring-averse child will be happy! Feel free to add some light blue and gray to your polar bear’s fur.

If you want to make the polar bears below, you can get instructions here from Artventurous.com. We used oil pastels for the whole project. Oil pastels cover the black paper really well, and you get to explain how a polar bear’s skin is actually black! We also added fabric scarves and a red paper hat.

These are done by the three and five-year-olds at home:

My printable are free for your personal use! Download the polar bear printable here!

Welcome to the blog!

I’m Mary and I’m glad you’re here! Since 2014, I’ve been sharing encouraging words, fun Bible printables, and accessible art activities.

let’s talk about . . .

In today’s Friday Chat, I’m joined by my frien In today’s Friday Chat, I’m joined by my friend Katie to talk about my Bible study pet peeves and best practices for leading Bible studies. We have both led and been part of small group Bible studies for many years, and we talk about how our ideas about the purpose of Bible study have changed over the years.

We discuss the importance of letting the Bible be complex, keeping Jesus at the center, dealing with the fear of the discussions going off the rails, and Katie’s hot take on the importance of actually praying in our small groups. You’ll also get to hear Katie’s answer to the question, “Is Jesus a Republican or a Democrat?”

It’s a wide-ranging discussion that I found really helpful and challenging. You might agree or disagree with us, but that’s okay, because that’s the point we’re making. Hope you enjoy the discussion!
