Heads up y'all! We've got exactly 10 DAYS until Easter, so NOW would be a perfect time to start the activities in this beautiful book! You will still have plenty of time for the lessons and activities!
On this first day of Lent, I am really starting to get excited about Spring coming and the long-awaited celebration of Easter (even though it feels like we just put away Christmas!).
The Easter story is such a pivotal part of our faith, but the concepts and imagery are often too much for young minds and hearts to grasp. It was very difficult for our young son to see how Jesus was treated by others in the events leading up to his persecution and even harder for him to really get the why of it all.

So, I am so super excited for the release of this new ebook! Amanda (from Oh Amanda!) has put together a wonderful series of readings, lessons, and activities that gently and thoughtfully explain Jesus' death and resurrection. I bought the book this morning, and in only briefly flipping through the pages I can already see how wonderful this would be to share with your children in the days and weeks leading up to Easter. I am anxious to jump in and start the activities and share our experiences with you all!
From the author:
12 simple activities to be done the few weeks before Easter will turn your home into a memorial to Jesus’ death and resurrection. You’ll experience Jesus’ anointing, the Last Supper, Peter’s denial, the cross, the empty tomb and more. Memories will be made as your family uses their five senses to understand and believe the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection.
This simple eBook includes printables, Scriptures and specific conversation and starting points so you and your kids can get a sense of the resurrection.
