Monday Family Home Evening

Tonight, we had a lesson on Easter. I told the story of Jesus Christ's suffering in the garden of Gethsemane, His crucifixion, burial, and Resurrection. I came across a wonderful activity that suggested gathering an empty egg, an empty envelope, and empty box with a lid and other "empty" things. I asked my kids what was in the objects, and they responded that they were empty. Not bad for nearly 4 and 2 years old. I then explained that Easter was to celebrate the empty tomb. Jesus no longer was in the tomb, he was resurrected and that if we followed His teachings, we would be resurrected too.
