Yesterday, due to the craziness of the morning and rushing around, we didn't have time to do our Easter tradition when we talked about the Easter story, so this morning at breakfast we discussed Jesus's death and resurrection and made Resurrection Rolls.
I love the visual of the Easter story played out with this simple activity and the kids enjoy the process as well as the yummy result!
| The kids really enjoy making these rolls. Elliot just liked eating the marshmallows. |
| First they dip the marshmallow (Jesus without sin) into the butter (oils to prepare of burial). |
| Then rub the marshmallow in the cinnamon and sugar mixture (spices to prepare for burial). |
| Then wrap the coated marshmallow in the crescent roll, so there are no open spaces (Jesus was wrapped in linen). |
| Silly faces. |
| Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes (Jesus was then placed into a tomb and a large stone was placed to seal it). |
| Remove and cool slightly. (After 3 days they found the tomb empty, He is risen!) |
| The disappearance of the marshmallow is fun for the kids and as a bonus they are very yummy to eat! |
