Editing The Easter story, told in a fun and creative way

Let us play a game, you tell the kids. You prepare what initially appears to be an old-fashioned Easter egg search, however this year, the search incorporates a twist. Rather than perpetuating the ostensibly countless cycle of stories involving the Easter bunny, you may tell the kids all about the Easter story, the real one -- the reason behind the celebration of joy that all Christians all over the world welcome with joy and gratitude.

Commercial shopping malls would have little ones believe that Easter is focused on the search for those brightly colored eggs filled with candy or chocolate goodies inside. No one discusses Jesus Christ. Nobody talks about exactly how he made the ultimate sacrifice of giving up his life for all of mankind's sins, and then returning back to life to fulfill his promise granting everlasting life to all people who nurture the faith. And kids do not readily associate Easter with Jesus; the image of the Easter bunny is actually fused to mind. It's time to change that.

You don't have to fight against the Easter egg hunt tradition just to go against the tide. In fact, you can use the very same egg hunt to place the focus back on Jesus Christ. With the help of the 12 plastic Resurrection Eggs, sharing [http://www.iamsport.org/pg/blog/stem70bumper/read/24689217/the-easter-story-told-in-a-creative-and-fun-way the Easter story] to the children is as simple as planning the egg hunt, going along with them as they discover the hidden symbols inside, and help them draw analogies and conclusions to accompany the story book you will all read.

It is a discovery procedure that kids will truly enjoy, and they will have the element of play in their journey as well. Take them through those great moments of all time and listen in awe as God's grace moves through them, spurring them to comprehend the value of the Easter story.
