Consider this fun activity which will help them understand the message of the cross. You will need . . .
- One paper lunch bag per child
- One light color or white plastic egg per child
- Darker color watercolor markers - several per child
- Water
- Paper towels - to use to wash their egg and then dry it
Read 2 Corinthians 5:17 and talk about how Jesus is not able to make even one mark on His egg, because He never did anything wrong; He never sinned.
Have your grandchildren take water and wash their egg - the marks should wash away. Talk about how when we believe and ask Jesus for forgiveness, His death and resurrection take away our sins - they are gone! Encourage your grandchildren to put their plastic egg somewhere they will see it in the coming days, weeks, months and when they do, remember the message of the cross - Jesus will forgive them! Lead your grandchildren in thanking Jesus for His great love and grace!
Handing down the faith does not have to be hard - it is even able to be fun!
