Finding Easter in Bunnies and Baskets

Be Creative

Use your own creativity to incorporate other aspects of the Easter story into your celebration of Jesus’ triumphant resurrection.

Find ways to commemorate and teach about:

  • Palm Sunday
  • Jesus’ last supper with His disciples
  • Jesus’ prayer in the garden and our own prayers
  • Good Friday, when Jesus died on the cross
  • Mary and the other women who found the tomb empty
  • The special role of angels in the Easter story
Add to the meaning of Easter through:
  • A hand puppet show
  • Play-Doh
  • Special Easter story books
  • Reading from the Bible
  • Drawing pictures
  • Writing stories
  • Songs
  • Role playing
