Nature Find Atonement Art

Split your poster into three sections and roughly draw some outlines of Gethsemane, Crucifixion, and the Resurrection as shown in the post photos. Big spaces to fill with rocks and twigs and other nature finds!

Air Dry Clay Tomb Creations

I made this tomb in one evening with airy dry clay and now it is a permanent decor piece — and let’s be honest play item — during Eastertime. You could use the bake kind which I think will hold better (this one cannot be in contact with water). I thought about painting it maybe, each family member could make your own and show them, do whatever makes most sense for your family!

Easter Egg Charcuterie

I took this screenshot from an account and I forget who the credit goes to, but this simple idea is genius! A little snack tray but in eggs makes a lunch so simple and fun! Although not Christ-centered, there are always opportunities to talk about Jesus so for this one, you could mention that God wants us to take care of our bodies and eat healthy foods.
