Coloring order

Color Miriam's yellow robe and teal shawl first, then her long braid in a dark shade, one strand at a time.
Color the round hand drum she holds high in golden yellow, and give each woman with a drum behind her a different outfit color.
Alternate blue and turquoise for the sea, and leave the palm trees up top and the sandy ground for the very end.

Questions to talk about

What sound do you think the drum made when Miriam raised it high?
What song might the women behind her be singing?
How do you show it when something wonderful happens?

Take it further

In Exodus 15 Miriam takes a hand drum and dances. Make a drum from a paper plate, then shake it and dance together to a song you like.

Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

The black-and-white line art you print and color, drawn with wide areas and clear outlines for children.

Printing and coloring tips

Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
