Resurrection Egg Number One: Donkey Fun!

I love Resurrection Eggs by Family Life Publishing!  If you are using this wonderful resource, try adding an extra activity when you open each egg.

Day one/egg one contains a donkey.  Make a simple set of donkey ears and retell the story of Jesus coming into Jerusalem!

For more ideas to go with the first egg, check out my family theme nights blog post:

Fun Resurrection Eggs Extension Activities!

Our family loves to use Resurrection Eggs to retell the Biblical Easter story!  My kids have become very familiar with this resource, and I love trying to think of ways to continue to make the experience new and fun.

So today I posted five extension activities on my family fun night website http://familythemenights.com; ideas like playing Bible charades (to guess the items in the eggs), and enjoying morning egg hunts as part of family devotions during the days leading up to Easter.

Daniel and the Lions' Den

Daniel and the Lions' Den happens to be one of my favorite Bible stories.  It has so many great elements to it:  Daniel's conviction, God's protection and plenty of excitement!

It also happens to be a favorite with my kids.  We had a Daniel-themed family fun night last summer (for the second or third time):  my kids loved pretending to be lions as they learned about the story.  And I'm thinking that we are going to need to repeat that fun at home this weekend--my kids will be reviewing that story in Sunday school!

It also prompted me to put together a Pinterest pinboard of Daniel resources:

There is also a section of my family fun night book with meal ideas, activities, and resources with a Daniel and the Lions' Den theme:
