Teach your young children about the story of Lazarus. Get two
blankets so you and a child can each wrap up in a blanket, covering
everything but your faces. Lie on the ground all wrapped up; then
stand up and throw the blankets on the ground when one of you
shouts, "Lazarus, come out!" For kids who can't yet stand easily,
simply cover them with the blanket and pull it off when you say,
"Lazarus, come out!"
This lesson idea is excerpted from:
My First Hands-On Bible
My First Hands-On Bible gives younger kids (ages
3-6) the same chance to experience the Bible in a way that's just
for them. One-point lessons. Bible stories told with real Scripture
(the easy-to-read NLT). And fun activities that make a lasting
impression on childrens' thoughts and hearts.
