{Hope for the Home} Linky Party: 12 Ways to Make Easter About Jesus

Last year I shared a post entitled {Jesus or the Cadbury Bunny}: 12 Ways to Make Easter About Jesus and it was such a hit (featured over at Tatertots and Jello both this year and last year), I thought I would share it with you today!

Go here to view the full article. Do you have any other ideas for making Easter about Jesus?

The boys and I did most of the items listed last Easter and we had a blast! My hope was to find ways to point them to the cross since our world likes to distract us with other American holiday traditions, forgetting the true reason for the season.

Now, don't get me wrong, we do all of the fun bunny stuff too. But I wanted to make sure we took time to remember the resurrection, the very foundation of our faith and the reason for the Easter celebration.

I hope you enjoy it and that you and your family get to try some of the fun activities listed over the next few weeks! Now I just need to decide which activities I am going to do with my boys this year! :)

Happy Monday, friends! May you and yours have a blessed Easter season together!
