When it comes to high holiday activities for the little ones, keeping it simple is often a win! Today, I’m sharing a bundle of Rosh Hashanah through Sukkot coloring pages that are perfect for toddlers and younger preschool. They are super simple, with easy, recognizable shapes.
You have something for every Tishrei holiday: Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and Simchat Torah!
And I made them as both coloring pages AND do a dot pages just for fun. These are available as a premium download in my Etsy shop, right here, however, if you want to first learn more about them, just keep scrolling!
The full list of Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkot Coloring Pages
First, what’s inside? These are the illustrations featured in this Tishrei coloring & do a dot packet, featuring multiple pages for each holiday. Use it all at once, turn it into an activity book, or use them as multiple classroom activities at each holiday.
You have:
- Pomegranate
- Apple
- Honey
- Shofar
- Machzor (holiday prayer book)
- Charity
- Slippers (traditionally worn on Yom Kippur when leather shoes aren’t worn)
- Sukkah
- Lulav
- Etrog
- Torah
- Flag (traditionally held and waved by kids in synagogue on Simchat Torah)
You get the same sequence of pages in four PDF files:
- Dot art with words
- Dot art without words
- Coloring with words
- Coloring without words.
All words are in Hebrew AND English.
All images are the same on each file with only slight differences to accommodate dot art.
The images are incredibly simple – that is, I made them with as little detail as I can while still allowing them to be fully recognizable. I find that Do a Dot works best with the simplest images.
Three ways to craft these Rosh Hashanah through Sukkot coloring pages
While I originally designed these as Bingo marker pages, I will share with you just how versatile this is!
Super Simple Coloring
Included in your download is a just-coloring version (no dots) for kids who like to color. This is perfect for very young kids – such as babies who are fingerpainting, toddlers who scribble…
For kids who are already actually filling in lines, it may already be too simple – depends on how much detail they like!
Do a Dot / Bingo Markers
The original intention was to make this for Do a Dot markers. My kids love them. We have a collection of the ones that survived from 3 different sets – including the first ones that M had as a toddler.
I do see a difference in quality between the Do a Dot brand and others (for example, Michaels’ Creatology brand) but the knockoffs are still decent. If you’re looking for a long-term high quality investment, go for the original. If it’s too pricey, try a knockoff.
Bingo markers not only feel like “painting” for kids, but they are a fabulous challenge, allowing them to be precise and build that hand-eye coordination.
I made these with 3/4 inch circles. This is slightly smaller than the tip of the Bingo marker, however, I find that the kids never fill in the full circle – and 3/4 inches is the size they usually get so I stick with that (see A, age 3’s, colored example below).
Dot Stickers
Want to hear a cool hack? Dot stickers work on Do a Dot sheets and they are fabulous for pincer grasp and fine motor skill building. And for kids who love stickers.
I used 1/2 inch stickers because I still have a big stash of those but it’ll be so much cooler if you get 3/4 inch stickers since that’s how big the circles are.
Tip: if giving these out to multiple kids, get the ones that have multiple colors on one sheet (instead of separate single color sheets) so that you can simply hand 1-2 sheets to each kid.
More ideas
Since the images are so simple, these Rosh Hashanah through Sukkot coloring pages are so versatile:
- Use as a template for simple crafts – they are designed to be easy shapes to cut and paste.
- Or have kids cut the colored image and paste on a background – it’s great scissors skills practice, once again, with simple shapes. Decorate with other craft supplies (like craft gems, etc.)
- Dot art with alternative brushes – like foam pouncers, pom poms held with clothespins, large cotton swabs…
- Make Pom Pom art by simply gluing pom poms into the circles! Get a big pack of colorful pom poms to help you.
- Kids can make fingerprint art by dabbing their fingers on a washable stamp pad and adding fingerprints to each circle.
- Or, use the coloring version for handprint art – most of them have an area large enough to add a small kid’s hand!
