Easter 2017...

This is a synopsis of our Easter Traditions this year- 2017...

A few weeks before Easter, we decided to begin reading the Jesus Storybook Bible starting with Jesus' birth and putting the names of Jesus on our Jesus tree.  We got lots of Easter books from the library and would sing our Easter hymns each morning. 

About two weeks before Easter, we planted a Resurrection Garden with grass seed.  We decorated Easter eggs and enjoyed singing Resurrection songs.  We made Easter crafts in our Art co-op.  On Holy Week, we did a holy week board with different Scripture passages and little crafts to stick up on the board.  We hid the Resurrection eggs one for each day and talked about them and continued reading our Jesus Storybook Bible.

Easter morning we did our Resurrection egg and made a Lamb Cake for the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.  We also did Easter baskets and told the Resurrection story.
