Preparing for Easter

The week before Easter we had a lesson in family home evening lesson where we discussed the events that occurred leading up to our Saviours atonement, his death on the cross and his resurrection.  We used 12 little eggs that contained small symbols of these events such as a nail, a rock, etc. It worked really well and the kids were very attentive throughout the lesson. The spirit witnessed to us as we testified to one another that we knew these things were true. It started our week off nicely and helped us to focus on the real reason we celebrate Easter. 
Alissa's preprimary class made crosses out of damper and discussed the importance of Christ's death and resurrection. Sienna's class made cross shaped stained glass window pictures. I love that the kids are at a Christian school that values the true meaning of Easter as we do. They had a lovely Easter service during worship assembly too.

We have an Easter tradition where the kids decorate egg shaped cookies with icing, they were excited to continue this tradition one day after school. 




Zara had a go, in-between stuffing cookie into her mouth!
