The Easter Story for Children

"Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6)

The message of Jesus dying on the cross to save us, and then raising from the dead is very important.

This would be a great time to explain to the children that Easter is the day to celebrate the victory of the cross, thus granting us salvation and authority over all the powers of the devil.

He triumphed over sin and death, and He has the power to take us to be with Him when we die. A key passage referring to the Resurrection can be found in 1 Corinthians 15:12-58 for further understanding.

When instructing young children the most important factors, is the language we use. Remember, they are not miniature adults. Therefore, we cannot talk with them using the same vocabulary and type of reasoning used in dialogue with adults. Besides not understanding, they can get confused.

Here I am posting the Easter Story; is a cartoon based on the stories from the bible when 3 kids go back through time.

I believe your children will understand better what Easter is all about and thought the movies (for their divided in three) we will catch their attention.

God bless you!!!
