Yes,
There may be chocolate bunnies,
Jelly beans,
Peeps,
Cadbury and Reeses’ eggs
(my all time favorites!)
But don’t forget to add
some RESURRECTION to your
child’s basket!
6He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,7Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
8And they remembered his words…
Here’s how:
Grab a Ziploc Bag
and put the following in it:
*adapted from here*
A 3 Inch Piece of String
(Symbolizing the whip that was used on Jesus’s back)
A Blunt Nail
(That pierced His hands and feet)
A Small Cross
(Glue/tape two toothpicks together)
A Tiny Rock
(Showing them the tomb was sealed)
White Kleenex
(To represent the only thing that was left
in the tomb-grave clothes)
A Piece of Gold (old jewelry, or
gold-looking object)
gold-looking object)
(To stand for the streets of gold in heaven.
Remind your child, that Jesus is the only God,
for He rose from the dead!)
Even though, for our family,we
do not stress/encourage fairy tales,
we still have a little bit of fun!
We might even decorate some eggs,
or go on an egg hunt. . .
