This inviting coloring page is designed to celebrate Shabbat, the Jewish day of rest. The central focus of the page is the phrase “Shabbat Shalom,” beautifully written in a clean and bold font, offering a peaceful greeting that means “Sabbath of Peace.”
Flanking the text are two Shabbat candles in their holders, waiting to be brought to life with color. These candles are a traditional symbol of the start of Shabbat, representing the light and warmth that the Sabbath brings to homes and hearts.
This design is based on a real set of Eastern European shabbat candlesticks that are approximately 150 years old!
The simplicity of the design allows for personalization and creativity, making it a perfect activity for both children and adults as they prepare to welcome the Sabbath. The page can be used as an educational tool to teach about Shabbat traditions or as a meditative practice to relax and reflect on the week. With clear lines and ample space for coloring, this page is a beautiful way to engage with and honor the spirit of Shabbat.
