Easter Advent FREE Printables (Created by @SugarBeeCrafts) #HALLELUJAH

Hi Everyone !  I’ve got another great Easter themed printable for you this week!. I’m so excited to be able to share this inspirational holiday posts to help your family celebrate this amazing Easter season and our Savior, Jesus Christ.

I want my kiddos to get a deeper understanding of the holiday, and so I am SO excited to try out the new Easter Week Activity Advent from Sugar Bee Crafts

Easter Advent WEB

It is an advent (because my kiddos LOVE advents and opening something each day in anticipation) of activities to do the week leading up to Easter. Everything you'll need in way of cute printables and outlined activities has already been prepared ­ it doesn't get much easier than that.  

Your biggest preparation will be putting together the eggs. I used sticker numbers, but a sharpie marker will work just as well. You will need 8 eggs, numbered 1­8. You will open them in reverse order, starting with egg #8. We simply used a stick from our yard and tied the eggs to it with twine. Most plastic eggs have holes in the top ­ I used a large needle to get the twine threaded through those holes.

Activities range from journaling as a family to watching an online video to baking treats and delivering them to a neighbor. It is focused on learning more about Jesus and His teachings and the events that led up to Easter Sunday.

You can find all the materials in the FREE printables EASTER WEEK ACTIVITIES ADVENT found HERE. Simply print out the advent, cut the strips apart, fold them up and put them in the coordinating numbered eggs. There are also cute quote printables, journaling pages, and more.

PS, for the treat activity, you can find detailed instructions as a printable, and then photo step-by-step HERE: Resurrection Rolls   I hope you look forward to this coming Easter Week as much as my family and I are ­ I can't wait!! I know that we will be able to more fully understand Easter and gain a deeper love for it and Christ as we do.

As we go through our activities, I will be sharing our celebrations on my social media channels and using the hashtag #Hallelujah so you can follow along with others as well. Tag @SugarBeeCrafts and @CGroveAcademy so we can see how you use these freebies with your family and celebrate with you!

I am going to have a slightly different set up, so be sure to follow me on Instagram so you can see it!!  Here is a sneak peek of my advent:

I drew on the envelopes with my Cricut Explore One and then put some washi tape on the bottom.  I used pictures of Jesus from this photo pack, a few also came from this pack.  This photo pack would also be a great option!

I made the frame at a craft day at church back in November.  I used it for Christmas cards in December/January, I hung paper hearts in February and had shamrocks hanging previous to this!  It’s a great addition to my mantle!  You can get that FREE banner too!
