Does the word “Easter” appear in the Bible? There is a little controversy about this. The King James Translation does include the word in Acts 12:4, while nearly all other translations stick with the Greek phrase to mean passover. I think this is a distraction. In the English language and most church traditions Easter has become the normal word to describe the Sunday we celebrate Jesus’ resurrection.

I plan on using this lesson tomorrow. I think the children will like it. However, I don’t have the puppets, I am going to read the story and ask questions about it time permitting. Now to find an approprate craft or game. Thanks, I researched quiet a bit of material, and kept coming back to your site.
Yours in Christ,

I find all the lessons very useful and for the past month have been using it at our Sunday school and the children absolutley love it.
May God Bless you for doing this for His children…….
In addition to above suggestion you might consider adding movie time to your Easter get together. I found these Christian DVDs to be very appropriate for this occasion.
