The Mommy/Daddy Why? Collection Mommy, Why Do We Have Easter?
Jimmy was excited! Across the street Mrs. Smith was decorating her house for Easter, and he thought that was a great idea! His Mommy wasn’t so excited, and she and Jimmy decided to find out why people really celebrate Easter. With an understanding of Jesus’ resurrection, Jimmy and Mommy make plans for a “Resurrection Party” instead!
As a result of illness we were unable to attend church this Easter. Instead, we read Mommy, Why Do We Have Easter? together as a family (2 parents, 4 kids). It served as a great jumping off point. The kids asked a ton of questions. It was pretty great seeing how the kids connected the themes of the book (sin and Christ's sacrifice) to their own lives.
