Last year we posted about the 12 Days of Easter. We used our Resurrection Eggs and made 12 lessons to correspond with each of the eggs to help teach our kiddos about the meaning of Easter. We thought it might be nice to get the 12 Days of Easter unit in your hands early so […]

Day 7-The Nails
You’ll use this lesson 6 days before Easter. You’ll be using the seventh resurrection egg, which is yellow (color may vary) and will have three nails on the inside.
