Childrens christian easter games

Kids will open two eggs at a time hoping they match a Bible verse with the correct item. What's inside the egg must be shown to all players. If they get a match, they get to hold on to the eggs. If they don't, they place the eggs back in the exact same spot and try to remember where they are for the next time. For younger children, use glow-in-the-dark Easter Eggs for the hunt. Take a glow stick bracelet or other small glow stick item and place in each egg.

These can be their prizes at the end! Depending on the age of the children, hide these glow-in-the-dark Easter Eggs in the open or inside, under, or behind objects. For older children, use regular Easter Eggs for a fun hunt in the dark. Give each child a flashlight to spotlight the eggs with as they find them! This is what we will be doing with our "kids" ages ! Depending on the weather and safety, these Christian Easter games may be done outside at night or inside a dark house or church building.

The main key is to point out to them that Jesus is the Light and has called us to be lights in this dark world! Memorizing one or more of the following Bible verses would be a great contest to win a prize and also hide not only eggs, but God's Word in the hearts of your kids:.

A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. This Easter game will require one empty Easter basket and an empty plastic Easter egg for each child.

Have the children form a circle around the Easter basket and then take 1 step backing away from the basket. Ask them if they think they can toss their eggs and back it into the basket. Then ask each to think of things that are easy for them to do all by themselves. These will vary according to their ages but may be along the lines of hopping on one foot, brushing their teeth, etc.

It could be almost anything. Now ask them if they think they are able to toss their egg into the basket. They should be close enough that it is easy. Continue making it more difficult such as making them take 5 giant steps away from the basket and think of things that are possible for them to do by themselves, but may be more difficult. Have them try again to toss their eggs into the basket. Talk about why it was harder this time. By now you get the idea; this can be repeated how ever many times you would like varying the distance and difficulty each time.

Finally, have them so far away from the basket that it is impossible for them to throw their egg and make it into the basket. They'll want to try, but after they have realized there is no way they can, get them to the point of telling you that it is impossible!

As you celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, consider giving out unique Easter tracts such as The Lost Easter Egg Pop-up Tract during your Easter lesson, event or party. These Easter tracts feature clever pop-ups which tell the story of 3 children in search of a lost Easter egg. The 3 friends really, really want to find the lost Easter egg, just as God really, really wants to be with each one of us.

This is a lovely and thoughtful idea and we want to use this to teach and interact with our children.

The only problem is that the link to the Resurrection Eggs Word Search is wrong. It only links to the solution. There is no way to print the blank word search. Can you please correct this or send me the link to the word search?
