Easter Craft Ideas For Children
Monday, August 8th, 2011
can you give me some ideas on what fun things the children can do for easter?
i am volunteering to help out my church have some fun things for the kids who attend…so far i’ve thought of having an egg hunt with prizes for the winners, a coloring contest of some easter picture, and baking some cute easter cupcakes for them…
are there any other ideas like arts and crafts projects they can do or other activities that can be fun for them??
these kids range in age from 2-13
THank you!
For the older kids maybe a balloon relay, split them into teams, each person has to run with the balloon between their legs down an obstacle course. The very last person on the team has to pop the ballon to win. (to make it more difficult, tell them they can’t touch the balloon with their hands).
The younger kids can try a relay carrying a hard boiled egg with a spoon. The younger the group, the larger the spoon should be (serving spoons for 2yr olds, smaller spoons for 5 yr olds)
For your egg hunt…why not try and make it into a scavenger hunt sort of thing with clues inside the eggs to lead them to their next egg. The last egg they find can have their “prize”.
One suggestion, I’d hand out prizes to ALL the kids, not just the winners. That way you can avoid tears from the losing teams.
Have Fun

Sharing The Easter Faith With Children $18 “It is easy to share the Christmas story and faith with children. The story lends itself well to pageants and other celebratory events for children. It is not as easy to share the Easter story and faith with children because the messages and images are complex. In many congregations, children are featured in palm parades on Palm Sunday but not specifically planned for at other holy week services. This book explores what the Easter message can mean for children as they grow up. Brown helps congregations and families share the Easter message with children and include the children meaningfully in Lent, Holy Week, and Easter observances. The volume includes a reproducible booklet for parents.This carefully researched and well-grounded, practical resource from a respected Christian educator will strengthen a congregation’s educational ministry with children and support parents as they shape the faith of their children.” |
