The Magic Easter Basket is a fun, hands-on, interactive children’s sermon that clearly explains the meaning of Good Friday and Easter in a way kids can see, understand, and remember. Using an EASY Easter basket illusion, children learn how Jesus takes away our sins and replaces them with forgiveness, new life, and hope.
This sermon invites children to name real-life sins (such as lying, stealing, jealousy, and disrespect) and visually demonstrates how Jesus removes those sins through His death on the cross and resurrection on Easter morning. The lesson connects Good Friday to Easter, helping children understand why Easter is such good news.
Key Takeaway: I will not die, but live, and proclaim what He has done. Easter is all about Jesus and the bunny is just for fun.
