Easter Project

Here is a great little project for your little ones, that helps them focus on the coming celebration of our risen King.  This took all of ten minutes to assemble, including gathering needed items from the yard, and makes a great center piece.  The kids water it with a spray bottle a couple of times a day and hopefully in 3 weeks time we will have a lovely green covering like the one pictured above.

Instructions:
1. Use a tray base from a plant pot
2.  Place a can on the base and cover with potting soil
3.  Add pebbles for the pathway and large stone to cover tomb
4.  Sprikle grass seeds in dirt and cover with a light layer of top soil
5.  Create crosses out of sticks and insert in soil
6.  Keep the soil moist by watering with a spray bottle
7.  Watch, wait and anticipate his resurrection

Note: We have now replaced the potato "stone" with a real one we found on our walk to school today
