15 Free 10 Plagues Coloring Pages That Teach Kids About God’s Faithfulness
Every plague in this story touches two different households, one Egyptian, one Israelite, and the difference between them is the whole point. A child coloring this story gets to sit with that contrast page after page.
These 10 plagues coloring pages were built around that idea. Fifteen hand-drawn pages that treat both households with real dignity, following the story from the first plague through the parting of the sea, so a child sees not just what happened, but who it happened to.
A Note from Louisa (Founder of MyKidColors)
My mother was not famous and did not need to be. She ran her own business, made hard calls, and when a school kept working against me instead of for me, she stepped in and told them to stop. That is the kind of quiet advocacy I grew up watching.
This story has a much bigger scale of liberation than anything in my own life, but the same instinct sits underneath it, someone refusing to let a system keep working against the people it should be protecting.
This story is part of something bigger…

Conversation Corner: 3 Questions to Ask While Coloring
Turn this activity into a bonding moment. While your child colors, try asking these questions:
- For “The Nile Turns to Blood” (Page 1): “This was the very first plague. Why do you think God started here, at the river the Egyptians depended on most?”
- For “The Passover Blood” (Page 10): “This page shows two very different families on the same night. What do you think made the difference between them?”
- For “Crossing the Red Sea” (Page 14): “Moses and the people walked on dry ground between walls of water. What do you think it felt like to walk through something that scary, trusting it would hold?”
The Collection: 15 Free 10 Plagues of Egypt Coloring Pages
We’ve organized these into three sets to help you teach Moses and the 10 Plagues—from the first warning at the Nile to the joyful song of freedom by the sea.
For Little Hands: The First Warnings (Pages 1–5)
Best for toddlers and preschoolers. These pages focus on simple, visual storytelling — a shocked onlooker, a startled woman, a family at the table — that’s easy for little ones to follow.
- Page 1 shows Moses lifting his staff over the Nile as an Egyptian onlooker watches the water turn to blood in shock.
- Pages 2 & 3 capture the chaos of frogs taking over a kitchen and the discomfort of the plague of lice — great for talking about “yucky” feelings in a lighthearted way.
- Pages 4 & 5 move into deeper emotion, with a family overwhelmed by flies at dinner and a farmer grieving the loss of his cattle.
Moses and the Turning Point (Pages 6–10)
Perfect for elementary kids. These pages visualize the escalating stakes of the story and the growing contrast between Egypt and Goshen.
- Page 6 shows Egyptian magicians covering their boils before Pharaoh’s throne while Moses stands firm — a good page for talking about pride versus humility.
- Pages 7 & 8 contrast a safe Israelite family watching a hailstorm from inside their home in Goshen with the overwhelming locust swarm darkening the sky over Egypt.
- Pages 9 & 10 build to the heart of the story: a man alone in darkness watching light shine over Israel’s homes, and the split-frame image contrasting grief with the safety of the Passover blood — the emotional center of this 10 Plagues of Egypt coloring pages collection.
The Exodus & Celebration (Pages 11–15)
Designed for older kids or quiet reflection. These scenes trace the journey out of Egypt and the joy on the other side.
- Page 11 shows an Israelite family eating the first Passover meal in haste, staffs in hand and ready to travel.
- Pages 12 & 13 widen the lens, following Moses and a diverse crowd beginning their Exodus journey, and looking back at his original calling on the mountain.
- Pages 14 & 15 bring the celebration home: the parting of the Red Sea, and Moses and Miriam leading the people in a song of praise, complete with a decorative “10 Plagues of Egypt” badge for a keepsake cover.
Perfect for Sunday School & Homeschool Teachers
Parents and teachers love using these as 10 Plagues of Egypt activities, worksheets, and crafts. Here are a few ways to extend the lesson:
- Faith formation teachers preparing a Passover or Exodus lesson — Pages 10, 11, and 15 give kids a fast, visual walkthrough of the Passover night, the meal that followed, and the celebration on the other side, perfect for a “story at a glance” opening activity before deeper storytelling begins.
- Parents building a home faith practice — Pages 7 and 10 anchor a simple family ritual: talk about a time your family felt protected during something scary, and why that safety mattered.
- Homeschool families running an Exodus or character unit — Pages 6, 9, and 13 turn abstract themes like pride, isolation, and calling into concrete images kids can talk through one at a time.
- Interfaith and multicultural religious ed classrooms — Pages 5 and 8, showing the grieving Egyptian farmer and the overwhelming locust swarm, open honest conversations about how different traditions understand suffering and mercy, without minimizing how heavy this story is for the Egyptian families inside it.
Why We Choose Hand-Drawn Coloring Pages
This story asks an illustrator to hold two families in the same frame, again and again, and give both of them real weight, not villains and heroes, just people living through the same ten plagues from opposite sides.
That kind of balance takes a person actually thinking about each household, not a generator defaulting to one side as the point of the story.
One illustrator worked through the entire set, which is why the grief on the Egyptian farmer’s face in the livestock plague carries the same care as the joy on the far shore fifteen pages later. That consistency of dignity, page after page, is what makes this story feel whole instead of one sided.
Frequently Asked Questions
These plagues are pretty intense for young kids — how do I make this age-appropriate without watering down the story?
Focus on the “before and after” of each page rather than the plague’s intensity itself. For younger kids, use Pages 1–5 and talk about cause and effect (Pharaoh said no, so something changed) rather than dwelling on the discomfort. Save the full timeline, including Pages 6–10, for kids who are ready for more nuanced conversations about consequences and mercy.
Can I use this set specifically for a Passover-themed lesson, not just a general Exodus study?
Yes — Pages 10 and 11 are built exactly for that. Use Page 10’s split-frame image to explain the meaning behind the Passover blood, then move straight into Page 11’s first Passover meal to talk about why Jewish families still eat a Seder meal today in remembrance.
What’s a good way to help kids remember all ten plagues in order without just handing them a list?
Turn Pages 1–9 into a matching card game: color and cut them into a stack, mix them up, and have kids race to put them back in the correct order using the reference numbers on the back of each page. It turns memorization into a hands-on 10 Plagues worksheet activity instead of straight repetition.
We’re using this for Passover, not just a general Bible lesson. Does it work for that?
Yes, Pages 11 through 15 focus specifically on the Passover meal and the Exodus itself, making this set useful as passover coloring pages on their own, not only as a plagues lesson.
