2. You can easily make your own patterns for the top if you don't want to purchase the pattern. Take the egg apart and place one half in the center of a piece of paper so that the open end is on the paper. Trace the egg to make a circle.

3. Find the center of the circle and use a math compass to draw another circle that is 5 1/4" in diameter around the first circle.

4. Draw another smaller circle inside the egg circle.

5. Cut out the large circle and the inside circle. Cut little slits all the way around the inside of the circle and fold down the tabs.

6. Color the paper circle with colored pencils. Use the chalk markers to decorate the eggs. The chalk markers will wipe off with use or water but they do make beautiful decorations on the eggs.

7. Slip The paper onto the egg and tape down.

These tops can be used for not only tops but for spinners for games.

How to Use the Story Eggs:

3. Easter Egg Relay - Divide your children up into teams of ten or less. Each team gets a set of egg cards, and each player gets at least one card. The first child in each time walks with an egg on his shoe up to the front of the room where he places the egg in order and then runs back to the start line where he tags the next child in line who then races to get his egg in order. If the egg falls off of a child's shoe, the child must stop and place it back on his shoe before moving again. The team that gets all it's cards order first wins.

4. Play a Concentration Game - Make two sets of cards and lay them on a table face down. Have your children take turns picking up two cards they think might match. If they cards match, they get to keep the cards and tell you what part of the story they represent. Keep playing until all the cards are gone. They player with the most cards wins.

5. Make an Egg-shaped Book - Print out a set of cards for each child and cut them out. Have your children place the card in order and then punch a hole in the tops of the eggs. Time them together with a pretty ribbon.

6. Story Review - Place the egg story cards on a table in front of the children. Tell your children that as you review the events of the story to raise their hands if they think they know what card might represent that event. Once you have talked about one event ask a child to point to the egg that he thinks might represent that part of the story. If he is correct have him pick up the egg and place it in a row in the order of the events.

We would love to hear how you use the Easter Story Eggs. Send us your ideas and we will publish them here for others to use.

7. Bulletin Board Display - I have just completed a Bulletin board display for our Children's Corner which I have called EASTER IS FOR REMEMBERING. I used a large stained glass window featuring the cross for the central section and used the Easter story eggs - 5 on each side to complete the picture. It looks most effective and I am sure the children will enjoy it as much as the adults who have already had a chance to see it. A smaller display board emphasizes the Last Supper and Communion - also using the egg shape theme. It will be a reminder of their Sunday School lessons during the time it is up as they always enjoy discussing each new display. Stella

8. Egg Mobile - I have also printed out another set of the Easter story eggs for a friend to laminate. These will become a mobile which can be easily stored and used again each year. Stella

This was an incredibly effective craft! My 2 to 5 year olds practically danced around the room, retelling the story, and every child could successfully retell his or her parent the lesson! - Jodie Wills-Jordan (Pinterest)

 

 

 

Children color the picture of Jesus and then insert the strip of paper with the picture of Jesus into the background picture.

They pull the paper strip up so that Jesus looks like he is ascending into the clouds.

The patterns for this craft are available on the Sunday School lesson "Jesus Ascends" on The Resource Room.

The Bible verse appears at the bottom of the page, "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you
unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." John 14:3, KJV

2. Tape or glue streamers to the bottom of the picture.

3. Curl the picture into a tube shape and staple it closed.

Children will have fun coloring the pattern and then taping crepe paper streamers to the bottom. They look beautiful blowing in the wind. If you live in a rainy climate, you can laminate the paper and use plastic streamers instead.

I just want to let you know how helpful Danielle's Place and the Resource Room have been for me. I have the craft center for our 3 year-kindergartners. I have no children and some times am not too imaginative. Your website has been a life saver. I've used many of your ideas and patterns from Easter to Christmas to our summer program. . . . You have so much to offer, that I end up spending hours reading and making copies for future lessons. Thanks again. Ann Keeler
