Kids Activity Sheets: A Christian Easter – The Resurrection of Christ

John 20: 1-18, Matthew 28:1-8, Mark 16:1-8, Luke 24:1-12

I am going to ask you today to really consider what the focus you and your family really foster during the Easter period?  Do you mainly put the focus on the Easter Bunny and the Easter Egg, or do you and your family take time to remember and reflect on the real reason for this holiday?  That is that our Lord Jesus died for us and in three days he rose again so that we might have eternal life!

I have pondered on what the Lord has done for all of us a good many times (probably more times than I can remember)… it has been know to bring tears to my eyes once or twice actually – when I think about what a huge thing that he has done for us.  He died and he took upon himself all the weight and the guilt of all our sins as his own.  That means he has taken on board the sins of every single one of us; past, present and future.  That’s a lot of sins!  Does this not prove just how much the Lord loves us?

The following paraphrase is normally said at Christmas time, but really it does apply for Easter also – that is to ‘Remember the Reason for the Season’!  I wish to help you today in finding activities, bible stories etc for your children to teach them the meaning of Easter.
