Resurrection cookies





We started a new family tradition for Easter this year - Resurrection cookies! I had heard of them before but this was the first year that we decided to make them. I highly recommend them! It's a great, hands-on way to tell the Easter story to children! Each step of the cookie-making process symbolizes part of the story and you read a passage from the Bible with each step. It all culminates in coming in Sunday morning, taking the cookies out of the oven, and they're hollow inside, symbolizing the empty tomb. Here's a web site about it - http://www.annieshomepage.com/resurrectioncookies.html.
