Making Easter more Christ Centered – and Chocolate

(Old post bumped!)

Ideas from the Ensign on how to focus on the sacred and less on the goodies. šŸ™‚ Some great suggestions…

And here are pictures from our egg hunt with one of our homeschool groups. We had the hunt, tons of treats & lunch, and fun at the park. Kit found some cardboard boxes left by a hill and the kids tried out box sledding for the first time and loved it – they said it was the best part of the party.

We know Ben has light sensitivity issues but apparently so does Christopher:

Emy’s first egg hunt, she realized there was candy involved and took off:

Bennett also realized there was candy and was not amused by the 12 egg per child limit when there were clearly still eggs left on the ground for him to capture! šŸ™‚

And here are the second try on the homemade version of Cadbury Cream eggs and some homemade Reeses Peanut Butter type eggs. Both are DELICIOUS and I think homemade candy for baskets will be a new tradition:

Have the kids sew these adorable beanbag frogs.

Paper baskets. Make those with the kids’ art and fill with goodies to give away?

And hot cross buns and other goodies I miss that involve egg. šŸ™
