How do you teach kids about Easter?
I suppose you could convince children to give up vegetables for lent, but beyond that, you're fighting a losing battle. Giving up the things we love for lent is how adults focus and think about what Easter means. But that's not how children work.
If I'm being honest, that's not how I work either. But I try.
Instead, stories are the way to a child's heart.
Easter stories come in a vast range of ages and styles. Some rhyme, some have puzzles. Others show how Easter is anything but boring. Each of these books, as well as uniquely telling the story of Easter, are a pure delight to read.
We adore them all and we think your children will as well.

The Story of Easter by Alexa Tewkesbury
On every page of this easter story for kids are different animals. Some are hidden in the background. Others are waiting to be found. Each one is full of life and character. Alongside the elegant illustrations by Dani Padron and text from award-winning author Alexa Tewkesbury, the challenge to spot the animals helps make this an engaging Easter read for ages 3-5.
The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross
Stories about Jesus at Easter usually focus on the events leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection. But, this one is different. The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross places the Easter story in the context of God's bigger plan. It opens with the creation and the story of the Garden of Eden - setting the scene for why the Cross is super important.
By putting the two stories together, The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross offers a fuller picture of what Easter means and why we celebrate it.

A Very Happy Easter
How does Easter make you feel? How did the disciples feel?
A Very Happy Easter takes a different look at the story of Easter. It explores the emotions we feel and teaches children how to express them. When Jesus is taken, the disciples feel sad and so do we.
