Religious Easter Ideas for Kids- Focusing on the True Meaning of Easter

We all know that Easter is the most important religious day for Christians, so how do we keep Jesus from getting lost in the Easter bunny shuffle?

How do you make Easter about ‘The Lamb’ and not ‘The Bunny’?

It certainly helps to observe Lent before celebrating Easter,  but when it’s time, it’s great to have some ways ways to keep Easter religious and fun for kids!

    Thank you so much for linking up with Impress Your Kids!

    I am literally on your site right now b/c I'm printing off the resurrection set to color w/the kids. Thank you for the great GREAT ideas!

  2. Teaching Heart Mom says:

    I can't thank you enough for your ideas for my first year teaching Faith FOrmation. Thanks!

  3. Thanks, Lacy for the Resurrection Rolls recipe! We are going to try them for our egg hunt on Tuesday with our friends! They seem a lot easier than the cookie one.

    Love this site and keep coming back for the terrific ideas!

    God Bless!

  4. Melissa from MN says:

    More exciting ideas as usual. I had fun seeing your napkin rings, but as you warned – I'm out of ink! I honestly think I have more fun with these crafts than the kids!

  5. I’m so happy to have found this.
    The internet lacks the kind of things you share.
    God Bless your Generous Soul,
    Teresa

  6. Hey! I went back and read your Easter Basket stuffer post and wanted to share that the religious stickers are at my Dollar Tree this year- except the Stations of the Cross and Rosary ones… the two I really wanted… I bought a package of the others while they had them, though, Also, I saved my :inspirational” metal eggs from last year and plan to refill them this year. My kids didn’t really like the mints that were in them anyway. Great post!

  7. Kimberly says:

    I signed up for your blog, SO glad I found you! But I never got an email with the color resurrection set….is there a way I can get that? Thank you, thank you for all you do! Please don’t stop! I use all of it with my 3 little boys!

  8. Does that mean there is no way at all to get the colour Easter calendar either? I would really love a copy of that one.

    Thanks for everything you are doing.

  9. I am having trouble printing the Easter Cookies recipe and story. Am I doing something wrong? I clicked like on facebook and I can get to the download page but I’m not able to print it up. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful ideas.

  10. Tried to come to this site yesterday but it was down, almost cried thinking it was gone. Never go down again. I don’t know if I could take it. Love ya!

  11. Thank you so much for posting your inspiring ideas! I am always looking for kid-friendly ways to point our grandchildren to Christ! Your ideas & free helps are very much appreciated. I have printed out the “resurrection set.” I was going to purchase one (I saw in a magazine) this year, but yours is going to be so much more meaningful, as my Grands will be coloring it & we will be making memories as we do the craft together. May God richly bless you for sharing His creativity with the masses! Thank you, again.
