What
are Easter Story Eggs?
How do I make them?
What are they for anyway?
"To
remind your family of the Easter story, prepare an Easter basket
with 12
plastic eggs that can be opened. On the outside of the egg write
a number
(1-12) and fill with the corresponding message and Scripture (see
chart below).
Open one egg each day, starting 12 days before Easter. Read the
message aloud
to the family and look up the Scripture in the Bible. Pray
together,
thanking the Lord for that particular aspect of the
crucifixion and resurrection."
