Your child can understand simple comparisons. Play “full or empty” using a box with a lid and some familiar household objects to help your child begin to understand the empty tomb.
Why wasn’t Jesus in the tomb?
Because He is alive!

Blessings are often used in the Bible. A blessing can be a prayer of commission, a portion of Scripture, or words to encourage and guide.
A blessing to pray over your child; (Child’s name), Jesus is alive! May you know His great love for you today and always.
