For our Easter service project, the kids and I made Easter baskets filled with plastic eggs. We placed goodies in the eggs, leaving one egg in each basket empty. We tied a card to the baskets explaining that the empty egg represents that the tomb was empty because Jesus defeated death to save us from our sins. We took these baskets and gave them to some of our neighbors! Hopefully, this brightened someone's day and may have even sparked a fire in someone's hardened heart!!
We also placed two plastic eggs in clear treat bags. One egg filled with a treat and one left empty. We tied the bags with ribbon and the same little tag to take to school to their classmates! It is so important to teach our kids to let their lights shine in little ways wherever they are!
