Palm Sunday Stand-up Donkey craft (made out of foam sheets and paper, or just paper) with coats to place on the donkey's back and palm branches.

Palm Sunday Fun Pack 2 - Our Palm Sunday lesson, Right Up Close to Jesus is a fun interactive lesson for preschool ages 2-5: One for Preschool (ages four and five), and a modified, simpler one for Toddlers (ages two and three). The donkey craft is used as props for the lesson. There are printable color illustrated story pictures for the Palm Sunday lesson as well. For budget-minded Children's ministries, you can save on ink expense, by printing and making copies of the black and white pictures, then have some teen helpers color them to use for the lesson. The Palm Sunday story pages are also used as printable Palm Sunday pictures to color and printable craft pages. There are activities to help the children be active in their learning. By becoming a member, you will have access to all of the printable pages below, as well as the Palm Sunday preschool and toddler lesson and all of the other themes on the Bible Kids Fun Zone membership website. Join now and have access to all of the Fun Packs!

How to Make Booklet: Print and make copies of story pages. Use color pictures for teacher's copy, if desired. Collate and staple each booklet along top. Write each child's name on the front of their book. Children color pages. Children put restickable sticker glue on back of palm branch stickers. Place stickers on cover.

How to Use the Booklet: Make up a sample to read to the children before they make their own booklet

Characters: Color characters and palm branches with crayons or markers. Glue all pieces onto the poster board, making sure to glue down the edges. Cut all pieces out. Glue palm branch onto the hands. Stands: On both the free-standing piece, and the stand on the characters, fold back tabs on fold lines. The free-standing piece will be the back of the stand. Just glue or staple the folded-back tabs of that piece to both of the folded-back tabs of the stand on the character. It will form a curved half-circle shape. Straighten the character to stand.

How to Make Palm Sunday Paper Doll: Color everything on both craft pages. Cut out all pieces. Roll up both ends of the scroll. Glue the middle of it onto the doll's hands. Make a little loop out of a piece of tape. Tape the palm leaf into the other hand.

How To Use the Bible Kid Paper Doll: Doll can take off his coat when reading the first part when it says "take off my coat", and lay down the palm branch when it talks about the palm branch.
