Why not get the kids to read the book related to the coloring page, or watch the movie?

Beware that the original BFG is actually quite scary! I remember watching it with my son when he was much younger and telling him what a wonderful movie I remembered it to be.

Well, it is wonderful, although not (in my opinion) suitable for very young children.
