Resurrection eggs make it easy to share the biblical Easter story with your little ones in a way that they can easily understand, without some of the more troubling details that they may not be ready to learn about just yet.

When my kids were younger, I always loved sharing the story of Easter using Resurrection Eggs. I was able to make our own version at home and save money by using the resurrection eggs printables below, at the bottom of this post, and some inexpensive plastic eggs.

You can choose to add small trinkets to the eggs too if you think that will help your little ones understand the story better.

If you don’t want to gather the trinkets or want a less expensive version, you can just use the FREE Resurrection Eggs Printable trinkets instead.

Tips for making Resurrection Eggs

Using a permanent marker, number each of the 12 plastic eggs 1. 2. 3. etc. until you’ve numbered twelve eggs in order.
Fill each egg with the correct scripture and trinkets (trinkets are optional).
Choose a time when your children are ready to sit and listen for about 20 minutes.

This is a great way to share the Resurrection Story with even your littlest ones.

I also think this is a great Printable Resurrection Egg idea too!
