Easter Festivities Day 3: Love One Another

Last year, we tried to do ALL of the Last Supper activities in one night, adn it was just too much for the kids. So, we decided that since they are still young, we could simplify our activities by spreading things out a bit and not doing too much in one day. This works out great, because we can just add lots of other excellent activities later on as they get older! So, for day three, we focused on Christ's teachings at The Last Supper.

Scripture Reading: John 13:1-30 (we read a few verses and summarized the rest- Tori can't handle much more than that!)
(Sure it's a little out of order- but I'm okay with that!) Above you can see the girls listening to the lesson.
We taught them about Christ's teachings on Service. The Early Childhood Advocate in me loves that He uses the firt step to modifing behavior, which is to model the appropriate behavior. Not that Christ fits into our little box of classifications, but that teaching by modeling is a pattern set by Christ.

Sorry... I'll stop that now.

Obviously, for our activity, we washed eachother's feet. The kids LOVED this, of course, and insisted on washing our feet, too.
We finished things off with some Easter Rice Krispie Treats!
