Easter Story in Eggs

I have been looking for something like this for sometime.  I have seen simaler one but this is the one I found since having kids. I found this on a great blog chocolateonmycranium.blogspot.com. She has posted some great idles about teaching our children about Christ.

Cut apart the following scriptures and put them in corresponding numbered plastic eggs. Add the appropriate item (in parentheses) except for the 12th egg, which should remain symbolically empty. Serve the eggs in a decorated basket. Begin with egg #1 eleven days before Easter (March 27th this year) so that you open #12 on Easter.We like to look up the scripture references and read straight from the scriptures. All references are for the King James version of the bible.

1. Matthew 26:39 (sacrament cup or small cracker)
2. Matthew 26: 48-49 (chocolate kiss)
3. Matthew 26: 14-15 (3 dimes) This fulfilled the prophecy in Zechariah 11:12-14.
4. Matthew 27:1-2 (knotted twine)
5. Matthew 27:15, 17, 21, 24-26 (chunk of hand soap)
6. Matthew 27:28-30 (square of red or purple fabric)
7. Matthew 27:31-32 (small nail)
8. Matthew 27:50-51, 54 (crushed rocks)
9. Matthew 27:57-60 (strip of white cloth)
10. Matthew 27:60, 62-66 ( a small, flat stone)
11. Mark 16:1, 2-6 (bay leaf or other herb)
12. Matthew 28:5-6 ( empty)


Happy Easter!
