wonderful way to teach the Easter story

Today, I bought some Resurrection Eggs from Hobby Lobby for half off. 
That is only $8.00.

If you have never heard of Resurrection Eggs before, they are a wonderful tool to help teach your children about the Easter story.

They come with a story booklet that gives a scripture passage and little story for each egg.

Some examples of what the eggs contain are . . .

a donkey that Jesus rode into town on,

a crown of thorns,

a cross,

and of course, nothing to represent the empty tomb.

Luke and I went through each egg today and he was so riveted the entire time . . . excited to see what was in the next egg and what it represented.

I highly recommend these eggs!

You can get them here for $12.99 ($4 cheaper than Amazon)if you do not have a Hobby Lobby nearby.
You can also get them at your local Christian Book Store or church bookstore. (I think WalMart also sells them.)
