The Easter Story Egg is a tradition that celebrates the true meaning of Easter. This family activity includes a hardcover book and 7 wooden nesting Eggs. The Story Egg book begins on Palm Sunday and ends on Easter Sunday. Each Egg within the set of nesting Eggs has a story that relates to a particular day in Holy Week, leading up to Easter Sunday. As the children open each Egg they will discover the Easter story and the journey of Jesus through Passion week. Finally, on Resurrection Sunday the child will open the smallest Egg to find it empty because JESUS HAS RISEN! Scripture in The Easter Story Egg book is taken from the NIV version of the bible. Please remember these eggs are made of raw natural wood. They may be tight to open the first few times but they will loosen with use. Occasionally the rim of the egg can shift during the drying process. Please contact us through Amazon messaging if you discover an egg that does not fit properly and we will be happy to replace it.
