Huge smile on our faces seeing our Palestine Colouring Books in use by The Woodchips (3 to 6 year olds) @woodcraftfolk in Brighton. The groups are having sessions on Palestinian culture in prep to host a delegation of Palestinian youth at the Common Ground Festival 2020.💚🇵🇸🖌️🎨 pic.twitter.com/OTNeEgpSx4

We are proud to present our first resource, the Palestine Colouring Book. The drawings were hand drawn by Palestinian creatives based in Ramallah and Jerusalem, who we have supported through the project.
Containing 24 x A4 pages designed to engage children, whether Palestinian or otherwise, with the cultural and historic side of Palestine.
The beautifully illustrated pages, calling to be splashed to life with colour, feature traditional scenes such as dabkeh dancing and buying fruit at the market place; nature like the fig and orange trees and Palestine’s historic towns and their sites, such as Jerusalem’s Masjid Al Aqsa or Bethlehem’s Church of the Nativity.
The book is available for £5 from our Etsy store, or if you would like to arrange a bulk order, please email natasha@palestinefoundation.org.uk.
We have secured some copies of Golbarg Bashi’s P is for Palestine: A Palestine Alphabet Book and Counting Up The Olive Tree: A Palestine Number Book, available exclusively in the UK through PCF.
Shop for these on our Etsy store now.
“P is for Palestine is a colorful manifestation of all that is beautiful about the land of my parents and ancestors. This book is a gift that takes you on a journey of love, life and resilience; the virtues of my beloved Palestine.” — Linda Sarsour, award-winning Palestinian Muslim American Activist.
