EMPTY!
WHAT YOU DO: Use several plastic cups flipped upside down. In every cup but one, place a hidden object or a sticker at the bottom of each. Have children shuffle the cups to look for the empty one (or the one without a sticker). Remind them that in today's story, the tomb was empty, too!
JUMP HIGH LIKE A KITE
WHAT YOU DO: Print the attached kite image. Place a piece of tape on the back of it and have your child jump as high as they can and place the kite on the wall. Remind them that God's love for us goes higher than even the highest kite!
Write It Out
Read Isaiah 54:10
In the space below, write down some words that describe a mountain.
Did you include words like strong, majestic, or big in your list? When you think about mountains, you might not be picturing them the way today’s verse describes. Even if the mountains were to shake or the hills disappear, God’s love for us never changes. And we can know that for sure because God is bigger and stronger than any majestic mountain range. He’s the one who created them in the first place.
God’s covenant or promise to us is peace. It’s a peace that can never be shaken or removed. God made a promise to give us peace and He kept that promise by sending Jesus.
Tell God you love Him. Then, thank Him for loving you so much that He chose to send Jesus.
Saying "Thank You"
Read John 14:27
When Jesus came to earth, many hoped that He would be a leader who would rule and bring peace. And Jesus did come to bring peace, but not in the way they expected. Jesus came to bring us peace in our hearts.
God sent Jesus to pay the price for our sin. That’s the peace that Jesus brings. When we put our trust in Jesus and what He has done for us, we can have peace.
Draw a gift box on a separate piece of paper. Write “PEACE” on the side of your box and draw a great big bow.
Thank God for sending Jesus to bring the gift of PEACE to you in a way that only He could.
