Easter Scavenger Hunt

This was a "scavenger hunt" that took the kids through their Bibles. They looked up Scriptures on their own and then followed the directions to draw or make with paper the objects in each Scripture. FUN!

Easter Party in Class!

We had 4 stations- Easter Pictionary, Easter Bingo, Snacks, and Making an Easter Basket for Toyai! We had a blast! Thank you so much, parents, for helping!

At this station, the kids wrote Scripture on one slip, a note to Toyai on another, and then filled a plastic egg with their slips and a piece of candy.

Easter Bingo!

Easter-themed Pictionary!

Benji deep in thought... "Hmmm. How should I draw this?"

Snack Station! Mmm good!

Resurrection Eggs

We had a scripture and an image inside each egg. The kids got to come up one at a time to open an egg, read aloud the Scripture inside, and show the class the picture. The eggs told a simplified version of the Easter story hitting the 12 key events surrounding Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. We went into a lot more depth during our Bible time.
