EASTER ~ Eggs in the "BASKET"

The Easter Wheels in my head have been turning!

 I really liked my GOLDEN EGG~ hot potato game (posted below), but I decided to come up with something else... Im a woman who loves options. :)

Im going to write "JACK RABBITS" vs. "COTTONTAILS" on the board aka boys vs. girls (thank you Sugardoodle, for that fun alternative).
I'll have Plastic eggs filled with songs all about he savior inside and two additional empty baskets on the floor.  Ill pick one boy and one girl to come up and pick an egg, stand behind a designated line and whoever can get their egg into their own "Basket" first gets a point for their team, and also gets to open their egg and thats the song we'll sing!



I was super excited to have these smaller baskets on hand... the perfect size to make it "EGG-STRA" challenging. :)

Hope you all have a very sweet Easter Sunday!

EASTER ~Hot/Cold Golden Egg Hunt~

Easter Sunday is my FAVORITE Sunday!

I wanted to do something fun.

So, we are going to play the "GOLDEN EGG"!

I have a huge Primary, so I'm making about a dozen paper eggs out of card stock (if my Primary was small enough, it would be fun to make one for each child), and then 1 Golden Egg, also bring a plastic egg to pass around, like a hot potato.

Give the eggs out and ask the children to quietly SIT on their egg, ask the pianist to play a song and have the kids pass the plastic egg around, when the music stops, the child holding the egg gets to go out and come back in to search for the GOLDEN EGG!

The golden egg also gets sat on, while the child is out or blindfolded (whatever works better for you) ask a child to sit on the egg and sing Primary Songs while the child searches.... extra quietly when they are far, and louder when they are near, you know how that goes. :)





HAVE A HAPPY EASTER!
