How Do You Keep Christ in Easter?
I love Easter! I love the chocolate treats and the traditional egg hunt and all the fun of Easter. But I also want my kids to know the answer to why we celebrate Easter… and its not about the Easter Bunny. While those traditions are fun, I want my kids to remember that Easter is about Jesus, our Savior. I want them to be able to reflect on the meaning of Easter and be able to develop a deeper understanding of Christ through our celebrations.
If you’re looking for some Easter ideas, The Dating Divas have a countdown to Easter, and the best part? It’s full of Christ-Centered traditions (and it’s adorable, too)! I’ve used this countdown for 2 years now and I’m excited to use it again this year. Each year we’ve taken 1 or 2 ideas from the countdown and used those to enrich our family traditions.
This year, I’m planning on reusing a few ideas and adding to them! I love that this is something that I can use year after year in different ways.
Our absolute favorite idea is the Passover Meal. My kids love helping in the kitchen and they are always so talkative around the dinner table. The Passover Meal is a fun way to get the conversation going about Jesus since we have a special dinner that reflects the kind of dinner that Christ might have had.
But there are so many fun Christ-Centered Easter traditions in this pack that you’ll enjoy.
