Pinecrest Kindergartners Learn About Easter Story with Egg Hunt

The kindergarten classes at Pinecrest Academy spent time in March learning about Easter and Holy Week. One of the kindergarten teachers’ favorite ways to share the Easter story with their students is through 'Resurrection Eggs,’ a fun and interactive teaching tool by an organization called Family Life.

These out-of-the-ordinary eggs, allow Easter to come to life in the little hands that find them. Each of 12 colorful plastic eggs holds a different memory-grabbing symbol designed to help take young children through Jesus' journey to the cross and into the Easter season.

While the children had a great time searching for the colorful eggs on the school’s playground the week before Easter, this egg hunt was a little different. They searched for eggs to match each letter in the word “Easter.” Pinecrest kindergartner Olivia Fruechtenicht (pictured here) was delighted to have found all of the eggs enabling her to spell “Easter!”
