Gather a paper plate, crayons or markers, a piece of tissue paper, scissors, and a Little People figure. (Note: You could use a small ball pit ball instead of a tissue paper ball.)
Cut the plate in half and then cut the middle out of the plate to look like an arch. This will be your tomb.
Color the “tomb” the crayons or markers.
Roll the tissue paper into a ball. This will be your stone.
Place the Little People figure in the tomb to be Jesus and roll the stone in front of the tomb.
Remove Jesus from the tomb and then roll the stone away from the tomb. Jesus is gone. He’s alive! You can repeat this as many times as you’d like while retelling the story!
Jesus’
body was placed in the tomb with a big stone rolled in front of it. But, three
days later when the stone was moved, Jesus was gone! He was alive! God sent
Jesus to be our friend forever!
