Easter
Family Home Evening Lesson
Preparing for Easter
Opening Prayer: Dad
Opening Song: "Did Jesus Really Live Again?" Children's Songbook #64
Lesson:
Have a paper easter egg hunt. I purchased a similar thing from a store, but you could easily make yourself. It had paper eggs, basket to put eggs in and arrow signs to point the directions to go.
On the back of the eggs I wrote about something that happened in the lead up to Easter Sunday. You can have the children collect the eggs in order, or you can put them in order once they have all been found around the house.
Just draw an easy picture or write a few words on the back of each egg about the following things:
Palm Sunday
Washing of Disciples Feet
The First Sacrament
Garden of Gethsemene
Cruxifiction
Easter Sunday- He is Risen
Briefly talk about what happened the week leading up to Easter. Not too much, as I plan to use the other two mondays to go over some of the things in closer detail.
Activity:
Make this paper fan palm branch
Road to Easter Cut and Paste Work sheet
Closing Song: "Jesus Has Risen" Children's Songbook #70
Closing Prayer: Child
Treat:
Easter Eggs
Make Egg shaped sugar cookies
Boiled Eggs
Fill some plastic Eggs with small candy

Remember Jesus
Family Home Evening Lesson
Remember
Opening Song: "I feel my Saviours Love Children's Songbook #74
Opening Prayer: Child
Lesson: Daddy
Show a picture of Jesus. Ask how we remember him.
Read yourself or have an older child read the Sacrament Prayers from the scriptures (D&C 20:77, 79 - Our 8 year old did for us) Ask the children to guess what it is you are reading. (some of kids did, some knew it was familiar, but not sure)
Activity:
Now say you are going to play a memory game. Children have one minute to look at 10 items on a tray. Cover it up and have children write or draw or dictate to you what they remember on the tray. We made sure one of the items was a small picture of Jesus.
Our older girls wanted a go at being the person in charge of the tray, so we played 3 different versions of the game (allowing them to choose the items, but the ONLY Item that had to stay the same each time was the picture of Jesus)
We said that it is important to remember Jesus in our lives, even when it can be difficult. We must make room for and love Jesus.
