Homemade Resurrection Eggs Printables

Resurrection EggsResurrection Eggs

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.

It is really easy to make a simple and easy to understand resurrection eggs craft that kids love to do.

You can buy the Complete Resurrection Eggs Kit or you can make your own using the directions below.

Resurrection Eggs Story

Using twelve plastic Easter eggs, the printable resurrection eggs scriptures and the corresponding resurrection eggs story and trinkets, you can tell the Easter story to your little ones in a way that will they can easily understand and will keep them engaged.

Resurrection Eggs Story

  • a small blade of grass to represent a palm branch at Jesus’ triumphal entry.
  • 3 quarters to represent the 30 pieces of silver that Judas Iscariot received
  • a cracker to represent the Last Supper
  • a tiny piece of paper rolled into a scroll to represent Jesus’ prayer in the garden
  • a piece of rope or yarn to represent the soldier’s whipping Jesus
  • a thorn to represent the crown of thorns
  • 2 small nails to represent the nails and the cross
  • Mini dice to represent the soldier’s casting lots for Jesus’ clothes
  • a toothpick with one end broken off to represent the spear piercing Jesus’ side
  • a piece thin white fabric to represent Joseph wrapping Jesus in clean linen cloth
  • a rock to represent the stone rolled in front of the tomb
  • the final egg is empty to represent the empty tomb.

All you need is a package of 12 plastic easter Eggs, an empty egg carton, and the Resurrection Eggs printables below.

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!

    Are you supposed to put the verse in the egg as well as the trinket? If so, do you shrink the printable down (because they are HUGE)?

      I fold the verse up. I am working on a new version of the printable that isn’t as big and should have it up in the next couple days.

    My Junior church kids made these about 12 years ago. We used shrinky dink plastic (#6 plastic containers is same type plastic). This can be put through your printer (sa the surface to be printed first), the kids color and shrink it for the trinket inserts. We also used cocktail spears that I cut in length. Gauze and stones are easy to come by, as is the leather string to tie a small knot and turn into a whip. These are simply there best teaching tool!

    We are using Resurrection Eggs at church this year. But with a twist. We purchased the huge, stacking eggs (purchased at Hobby Lobby stack of 3 for $19.99 plus their discount) and put life size items in them. For instance used foam sword – cut down a little bit so it would fit – from Dollar Tree, plastic goblet from Dollar Tree, etc. Much easier for the smaller children to handle.

Don't forget to grab the Cookie Recipe Book that I am giving away to anyone that wants a copy. The link is in my bio, or comment below and I can send it to you directly.

Instagram post 2190026987661677894_4768974 #ad I am loving my new @OralB GENIUS Pro 8000 Rechargeable Toothbrush. The brush is equipped with Position Detection Technology to showcase the areas I missed, to ensure I never miss a zone again! I have to say it is a fun challenge trying to get a 100% score, so far I am doing pretty good at 97%...but I am not giving up until I get a perfect 100%!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ It also monitors how hard you are brushing with the visible pressure sensor, which is super important to me. TODAY ONLY, there is a really great Cyber Monday sale for this brush over at @Target today! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ If you are interested in learning more, I’ll share the link in my bio for you. I seriously never thought I would say it, but I cannot imagine ever going back to a manual toothbrush again, my teeth feel like I just left the dentist every time I use this. ⁠⠀
