What a fun weekend we had celebrating Jesus' resurrection.
We had some friends over and made these resurrection rolls.
They were the perfect hands on activity to teach our kiddos about Jesus' death and resurrection.
We read the accounts of Jesus death and resurrection to the kids from the Jesus Storybook Bible (our favorite) before we made the rolls (his death) and then while the rolls were baking (his resurrection).
And they totally got it!
They were so excited to see that the tomb was empty after the rolls were done baking.
And of course they loved eating them too!
Yesterday our church had an Easter Egg hunt.
The kids had a blast and we got more candy then we know what to do with.
They are egg hunting/gathering experts.
There are 4 of them.
Hope you guys have a great day celebrating our Savior!
We are off to church and then to my aunt and uncles for some more Easter fun!
Aaron and I want our kids to know and love Jesus more than anything else.
So we talk about Him a lot.
{Well not only because we want them to know and and love Him, because we love Him a lot and we kind of just can't help talking about Him.}
We are always on the look out for cool resources to help us teach our kids about the Lord and over the years we have complied a list of our favorites.
So I thought I'd share them with you over the next couple of weeks :)
Because when I find something awesome it's hard for me to keep it to myself.
Today I want to introduce you to Seeds Family Worship.
We were first introduced to Seeds CD's from a friend at a Mom's group I used to go to.
She kept telling me how much she and her family loved their CDs so I finally bought one and gave it a shot.
Next thing I knew we owned all 6.
So, what is Seeds Family Worship music?
I'm glad you asked!
"Seeds Family Worship was planted when worship leader, Jason Houser, was asked to write some songs to help kids remember the verses from his church’s summer Bible school.
Jason began writing songs and singing them for the kids and families at church. The songs were well-crafted, catchy, and taken straight from scripture. Families liked them. . . a lot."
Each Seeds CD has Bible passages (straight from the Bible...no paraphrasing) put to music.
They are super catchy and fun (and don't sound like typical make you want to pull your hair out kids music) which I love.
In fact I'm always finding myself getting their songs stuck in my head and singing them to myself through out the day.
What better thing to be stuck in my head than God's Word, right?
Anyways, we really love their music and I'm sure you would too so head on over here and check it out for yourself.
Or better yet preview some of their songs below :)
*Edited to add...
I can't believe I forgot to mention one of the coolest parts of Seeds music!
Each Seeds CD comes with TWO identical CDs.
One to keep and one to give away!
"We've taken inspiration from God's perfect plan for seeds dispersal and designed packaging intended to facilitate the spreading of Seeds. Each package of Seeds of Faith album includes two identical full-length CDs.
So simply tear the CD cover in half and share a complete packaged album with a friend nearby or far away. You get to take part in spreading Seeds--helping take God's Word to as many homes as possible."
