This is a great way to teach the Easter story to your children. Purchase a dozen hollow plastic eggs and number the eggs from 1 to 12. Place these items inside the eggs, then hide the eggs for the children to find. Open the eggs in order and read the scripture reference that goes with the item inside (or tell the story in your own words):
1 - 3 dimes (or any small silver coins) - Matthew 26: 14-16
2 - tiny cup or a picture of a cup - Matthew 26: 36-39
3 - a Hershey's kiss chocolate & a piece of rope - Matthew 26: 47-50, 27: 1-2
4 - piece of soap - Matthew 27: 22-26
5 - piece of red cloth/material - Matthew 27: 28-30
6 - a toothpick, cut in one small piece and a larger piece - Matthew 27: 33-35
7 - 1 die (a dice) - Matthew 27: 35-37
8 - stones/pebbles - Matthew 27: 50-51, 54
9 - piece of white cloth - Matthew 27: 57-60
10 - larger smooth stone/rock - Matthew 27: 60, 62-66
11 - bay leaf (spices) - Mark 16: 1-4
12 - nothing (empty) - Mark 16: 5-14
