Resurrection Eggs

Resurrection Eggs are a great way to focus on the reason we celebrate Easter (the death and resurrection of Jesus!). Typically, resurrection eggs consist of 12 multi-color eggs — each filled with a Bible verse and a symbol of the Easter story. Your family can open one each day, all at once, or at any pace you think is best.

The popular Family Life Resurrection Eggs are available for purchase, but there are plenty of DIY options. This page highlights our top picks for “best of the web” ideas for DIY Resurrection Eggs.
