Easter Story Eggs

Several years ago, a friend gave me a set of Easter Eggs that contain the Easter story. Each year, my kids - especially the youngest ones - love opening each egg in turn, finding out what is inside, and reading the applicable scriptures to find out how each item relates to the real meaning of Easter. This year I decided to give the eggs a little update and face lift.


There are several versions of this activity online. I used what I was originally given and tweaked it a little here and there to include an extra verse or two. Our original set was in large, colorful plastic eggs. I switched to these white eggs I found at a craft store. I love their simplicity and that they fit in an egg carton. :)

Here are the scripture references and what is inside each egg:








{If you would like a document with all of the scriptures typed out, let me know in the comments and I'll e-mail them to you. (Be sure to include your e-mail address if I don't already have it.) Happy Easter!}

Did I ever tell you about how I was a missionary in the MTC before I learned (or relearned) the meaning behind the Easter holiday? Sad (but true) story...
