Easter Activities Take 1 ;-)


First we made Easter paintings with Easter egg halfs and some glitter. A hit!!




Next we made crosses with our fingerprints and talked about how everyone is unique. .;-) 



We made fizzy Ice Chalk next. I put little creatures in muffin tins, mixed cornstarch, baking soda, water, and color and freezed them! The boys had fun playing! 





Next we made melted crayon rocks. Pick out some rocks and then bake them at 350 degrees for 10 min. Then set a crayon on the warm rocks and enjoy the beautiful creation. The boys were too excited that their rocks were hot to paint much!! 




We made bouncy eggs by soaking eggs in vinegar. The shell was eaten away and you could bounce it!! Pretty cool but would have been much better with white vinegar. LOL ;-) 


We made resurrection rolls today and talked a lot about Jesus and the story of Easter dying and rising from the dead! The boys were so interested. You dip marshmallows in cinnamon, roll them in a crescent roll, and bake. Just like Jesus's body was wrapped in spices and laid in a tomb. When you open the baked rolls to eat them, the marshmallows are gone. Just like Jesus was no longer in the tomb!
