Resurrection Eggs
Easter has come and gone but I still want to share this amazing activity we did in Sunday School this year. Each family constructed Resurrection Eggs. They used these like a count down to Easter. Starting 12 days before Easter the family would open an egg each night (in the correct order). Inside was a trinket and an explanation of its meaning. It allows for great discussion.
This concept was new to me, but I discovered that these kits can be purchased already assembled. I however wanted to share this with all of my church's kiddos, so we went searching for DIY kits. I modified several kits to make the one that works for me. Here are my printables: egg cards and
Resurrection cover.
The best part of this Easter was that even though the kiddos are 2 and 3, the Easter Bunny was an afterthought to them. This and other activities and discussions that were happening at our house was truly the message of the holiday.
