For many Christians, this week, the week before Easter, symbolizes "Holy Week" or "Passion Week"-- the last week of Jesus' life including his crucifixion and resurrection. The week began yesterday, Palm Sunday, when Jesus entered Jerusalem to cheering crowds and ends on Easter Sunday when we celebrate the Resurrection and that He is ALIVE! I encourage you join Finding Hope
here on Facebook as they share thoughts and scriptures each day this week on Jesus Christ's crucifixion and resurrection and how is the foundation for our HOPE.
Many of you have probaby heard of Resurrection Eggs. We mentioned them in
this post two years ago and you can buy them
here for 16.99. Good news is you don't have to spend 16.99! I was so excited when my three year old daughter who is now old enough to understand and appreciate them came home from preschool with her very own set that she made in class! I love her preschool.
You can make them with your kids too. It really is a great way to impress the Easter story from Matthew 26-27 into their hearts and minds.
All you need is an old egg carton, 12 plastic colored eggs and the items below to go inside each egg. If you really want to go all out, see how
this mom implemented it as a full on activity (I think for homeschool).
Here is a print out that coincides with each egg.
Have a Marvelous Monday!
