Easter Pew Book

These are a great tool to frame the concept of Easter for grades 2-5. The activities are coloring book style to allow for the young Christian to color and make those connections between reading and doing. Everything clipped to the clipboard is a gift for the child to take home after church.

What's Inside
|
The story of the Resurrection is a coloring book and tells the story of the women's, Mary the Mother of James, Mary Magdalene, and Salome, approach to the tomb and then finding that the Angel has rolled the stone away to reveal the empty tomb. They learn that Jesus isn't there because HE IS RISEN!
There a several puzzle activities–a maze leading from the cross to the empty tomb; count and color; and word search. There is also a color by number and a memory game to cut and play at home.
And centrally, the Pew Book has finger puppets and empty tomb backdrop. This is an activity to finish at home (it requires scissors and adhesive). The idea is that with the finger puppets (which can also be used on the tabletop) are a tangible means to act out and participate in the resurrection story. There are puppets representing Jesus, each of the three women, and two angels. The backdrop is the tomb. When the tab on the right is pulled, the empty tomb is revealed. The characters and backdrop match the Easter Story booklet.
