Print out a picture of Jesus. Use Making Friends or B illyBear4Kids Paper dolls (a little simpler than Making Friends) and add two or three of these to the picture of Jesus. Making Friends also has African Friends and Native American Friends which would illustrate that Jesus loves all the children of the world.
