Books and resources to help kids celebrate Easter
Parents know there's more to Easter than chocolate, but how can we help children understand what this season is really about?
Are you looking to engage your kids with the Easter story? While it's great to simply read through the Bible's account of Easter as a family, sometimes an activity book or comic can be an ideal extra to help kids grasp how much God loved them by sending His son to die on the cross. With that in mind, here are a few books and resources you may find helpful.
