Easter EGGstravaganza!

We had a wonderful week together before Easter, learning all about the real reason for the special holiday and making cute Easter crafts.

We made our bulletin board with sweet rabbits that remind us that God sent his Son to earth  to die for our sins because he loves us so much.

Not only did we turn ourselves in to bunnies for Easter but for our letter of the week, W, for Holy Souls Wabbits!

God's love is so big that he has the Whole World in his hands!

God's greatest display of love was in his death on the cross.  We learned about Jesus' journey through the Resurrection Egg Story with Mrs. Straessle during religion each day.  Each of the 12 eggs has an item that tells part of the story of Jesus birth through death.  If you have never heard of Resurrection Eggs I recommend checking them out, they are a great aid for sharing the Easter story with young children and all of our students loved them!

We also made beautiful stained glass crosses to hang in our classroom windows.

We ended our week together with an Easter Egg Hunt!  We had a great time walking to Prospect Park, hunting eggs, playing on the playground, and eating a picnic lunch!
