I stocked my cart with a rainbow of colorful Peeps today since they were on sale. We did all the sweet resurrection activities as well, and the resurrection cookie making activity really made an impact on my girls. Though the cookies weren't their favorites, so I think I'll try the rolls you posted next year. Now following you on Pinterest, too! <br /><br />Blessings on your day!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14267638517817280040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7042178429812658517.post-39559198411934563592012-04-09T14:20:30.722-05:002012-04-09T14:20:30.722-05:00Great ideas...our kids did the resurrection eggs a...Great ideas...our kids did the resurrection eggs at school and I think it is a great way for them to focus on the real meaning of Easter.

When they find the empty egg they have to come to us and tell us why empty is the best thing. We talk about the empty tomb and what that means for us and then they trade the empty egg for their "big" surprise. It is usually something special. That is what we do instead of easter baskets. Now that we have been doing it for a couple of years they really look forward to that empty egg. At first it threw them a bit until they realized why we celebrate something being empty!<br />Katie T.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7042178429812658517.post-6813459932290417142012-03-30T13:54:03.626-05:002012-03-30T13:54:03.626-05:00we are so doing the smore thing! we also like to m...we are so doing the smore thing! we also like to make Resurrection cookies the details are in this post: http://www.keethlerstory.blogspot.com/2011/04/resurrection-cookies_06.html I think it is a fun way to incorporate the story into food as well. :)Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15464704043348707244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7042178429812658517.post-70399593075577385302012-03-30T12:48:51.911-05:002012-03-30T12:48:51.911-05:00oved all those ideas...thanks for sharing.
