No, I Don't Do Bunnies at Easter

Perhaps you are new to coming to Christ or you want more Christ-centered Easter traditions to help foster your children's faith, if that is the case, then take a look at these activities!  All of these ideas point you and your kiddos to Jesus.  They are great teaching tools, reminders, and faith-builders for you and your family.  You can find more activities like these listed here at, Christ-Centered Easter Activities for Your Family.

As well, you can use many of these ideas as an outreach as you teach others about the true meaning of Easter.

No one has a guarantee of tomorrow, so my encouragement to you is to be intentional and passionate about shepherding your children to our Savior, today!  Spend your time and financial resources on things that will draw you and others towards Christ.   Seeing how I do not believe there is anything that is spiritually profitable about the 'bunny' at Easter, I don't waste my time doing things that center around this animal.  In fact, I think the enemy uses the bunny as a sly way of distracting us and diverting our attention from Christ to a cute, little, cuddly critter during this time of year.  You know, he is cunning like that!

Rather, let's have our focus on Jesus this Easter seeing how He paid the debt for our sins and He poured out His blood for us.

I guess if people can be anti-Jesus, then I can be anti-bunny for just 1 day out of the year! (lol)

Now, on with the activities!

Click on the pictures below and they'll give you all the details!




Crown of Thorns Snack


Love, love, love this!





Marshmallow Lambs


I think these are adorable!





Empty Tomb Treats


Isn't this idea so cute and creative?  I might have to do these seeing how the men in my house LOVE donuts!




Paper Plate Tomb Craft


For the non-sweets people, this one is for you!




Lamb of God Baskets


Seeing how I couldn't find a picture to show you about these baskets, here's my friend's little girl with her Lamb of God Easter basket.  I wrote out the instructions for this basket here, but I thought the photo could help you.  The milk jug handle is in the back and it's the handle to this basket as well.





Resurrection Rolls


I included these on my earlier post, too, but again I had no picture.  What can I say, I like to teach and share with pictures!



Live a poured out life for the Master,
