πŸ‘‘ Three Kings Day Coloring Pages & Activities

Three Kings Day coloring pages celebrate the Epiphany β€” the day the Three Wise Men, Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar, followed the Star of Bethlehem to bring gifts to the baby Jesus. Celebrated on January 6th, this holiday is a cherished tradition across Latin America, Spain, and many Christian communities. Kids can color the three kings in their royal robes, camels crossing the desert, the shining star, and the Rosca de Reyes (the traditional ring-shaped sweet bread). Pages range from simple crowns and camels for toddlers to detailed nativity and journey scenes for older children.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is Three Kings Day?

Three Kings Day (the Epiphany) is celebrated on January 6th, twelve days after Christmas. In many Latin American and Spanish families it's when children receive gifts from the Three Wise Men.

Who are the Three Kings?

The Three Wise Men β€” traditionally named Melchior, Caspar, and Balthazar β€” followed the Star of Bethlehem to bring gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to the baby Jesus. Our pages show them in their royal robes and on their camels.

What is the Rosca de Reyes?

The Rosca de Reyes is a ring-shaped sweet bread eaten on Three Kings Day, often decorated with candied fruit and hiding a small figurine inside. We have coloring pages of both the rosca and the festive table.

Are these pages good for Spanish class or dual-language classrooms?

Yes! Every page is available in English and Spanish, making them a great fit for teaching the DΓ­a de los Reyes Magos tradition and building vocabulary in both languages.

Crayons are perfect for the simple crowns and camels for younger kids. Colored pencils give more control on the detailed kings' robes and nativity scenes. Markers look vibrant β€” just use cardstock to avoid bleed-through.
