FAMILYLIFE Resurrection Eggs – Eggs for Easter Egg Hunt

Fun and alternative way to teach your children the true meaning of Easter. The packaging is cute and the kids will love it. Very good quality and overall worth every penny.

This is such a great way to interact with the Easter story. It's for kids of all ages. Mine are 9 & 11 and really enjoy this. Everything about this is great quality. The eggs are thick and sturdy, but still easy enough for small hands to open. All of the little pieces inside the eggs are well made and it's easy to tell what they are. The book tells you which eggs to open in what order, gives the Bible passage references that goes with that part of the story and has a kid friendly summary. The summaries are for small kids (3-6ish) so we just looked up the verses and read the Bible story itself, which was a great modification for older kids. This really started a lot of important meaningful discussion as a family and gave us a way to walk thru the Easter week together without it being just reading the Bible or us talking at the kids. It's good enough quality that you can put it away and use it every year. My 9 year has already said next year she wants to be in charge of us doing this as a family, which is awesome!

These resurrection eggs are really great. Nice quality plastic egg carton and eggs, and the figures inside are also good quality and represent the whole Easter story so very well. It’s a wonderful way to show how Easter is about Jesus death and resurrection and gives hands on learning approach which works well for many children. I also loved that this set comes with daily scripture cards about Easter story as well as a booklet with a little devotion for each day that describes what the figure in that day means and the Bible verse that backs it up. So the parent doesn’t even have to plan out what to say if they don’t want to, they can just read from the book (it’s in English and in Spanish!). Highly recommend this product!

These resurrection eggs are such a beautiful and meaningful way to teach kids about the true meaning of Easter. Each egg tells part of the Holy Week story in a simple, hands-on way that kept my kids engaged and asking questions. The quality is great, and I love how it makes such an important message easy to understand for little ones. Highly recommend for any family wanting to keep Christ at the center of Easter!

This is a great gift for my grand children that don't go to church. Fun way to teach them about the wonder of Easter and how Jesus died for our sins. Also love the passages leading up to Easter Sunday.

These are a wonderful addition to telling the Easter story! I highly recommend this!

The FamilyLife Resurrection Eggs are very nice, but I wish the book that comes with it had a hard cover - it's a small book that will likely be damaged with time and use, and I probably won't let kids play with it. More importantly though, I also purchased "The Story of the Resurrection Eggs Benjamin's Box" (ISBN 97803107155054 Zonderkidz 1997/updated 2008) as the book was clearly advertised and "designed" to be used with FamilyLife's Resurrection Eggs. I'm happy that I made that purchase because the soft-cover book that comes with the eggs is not story-like at all but rather instructional with an accurate color-coded page per egg. That said, although it's easier/nicer to use the story told in Benjamin's Box with younger kids, please/please/please note, Benjamin's Box does not/not tell the story in a way that matches up perfectly with the eggs, which presented a bit of a challenge when I read this to children for the first time (I had not reviewed the soft-cover book prior to reading Benjamin's Box - big mistake). I made it a game and we talked about what object we thought should actually be in each egg and also originally thought that maybe an object or two were missing as the objects nor the color of the eggs matched up exactly with Benjamin's Box. I later looked at the soft-cover book and found that the egg set was actually complete as per the egg product description - it just doesn't match Benjamin's Box. As Benjamin's Box is again advertised and states inside the book pg 7, "How to Use This Book, While Benjamin's Box can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story, it is designed to be used with FamilyLife's Resurrection Eggs" -- it would be nice if FamilyLife would again update either the book or the eggs so that these products actually correspond and work together. At a minimum, stop advertising that they go together - they really don't at this point. Comparison below for reference. Resurrection Eggs //// Benjamin's Book: 1. Blue egg, LITTLE DONKEY //// same 2. Light Pink egg, SILVER COINS //// same 3. Light Purple egg, CUP //// same 4. Orange egg, PRAYING HANDS //// same 5. Green egg, WHIP //// Green egg for THE LEATHER STRAP (confusing for kids as the objects don't look alike at all) 6. Yellow egg, ROOSTER //// (confusing here - there nothing anywhere in the book about the rooster, or the yellow egg at this point) 7. Light Orange egg, CROWN OF THORNS //// shows WHITE EGG with green writing for THE THORN 8. Light Green egg, NAILS IN THE CROSS //// shows YELLOW EGG with gold writing for THE NAIL (confusing as book shows three nails in a pile not a cross) 9. Purple egg, SPEAR //// shows a BLUE EGG and a PURPLE EGG for THE DIE & THE SPEAR (confusing as there are no die in the egg set and no third blue egg in the set, which would be needed here to match the book) 10. Light Blue egg, LINEN CLOTH //// shows a WHITE EGG with blue writing for THE CLOTH (confusing as kids are looking for the white egg here, which is actually empty in the egg set - kids originally thought an object was missing and had to open other eggs till they found the cloth) 11. Pink egg, STONE //// same 12. White egg, EMPTY //// shows a BLUE EGG with blue writing for HE IS RISEN! (very confusing for kids as they are looking for a blue egg and a DOVE as is pictured in the book; the book doesn't indicate in any way that the egg they find at this point should be empty - there is no DOVE in the egg set, but there is a CHICKEN in a yellow egg that makes no sense here but the kids tried to substitute the CHICKEN for the DOVE...) Overall, I'd still recommend the set, but you'll have to do some work in advance to make this work well if using the Benjamin's Box story! Otherwise, get ready to be creative while you're reading... and explain the chicken that magically makes it's appearance as the kids discover HE IS RISEN!

Yes it is well made and I am sure the children will enjoy it.

These are really sweet and a helpful tool to show kids the meaning of Easter. The story and the interactive items in the eggs are great. Much better quality than I expected. I’m thrifty so found the price a bit high, but we had a great Easter exploring these and will use them yearly and any other time through the year when asked about it. Would recommend removing from toys so all the pieces aren’t lost or switched in the eggs. Highly recommend

I love how this set re-introduces Jesus Christ into what is now considered classical Easter traditions such as easter eggs. It is bright, colourful, visual, tactile, and interactive for all of our children. (of various ages) It is a really great set to spark our family discussions about Jesus Christ and the week leading up to the atonement, crucifiction and resurrection. We plan to keep and use this as an annual Easter tradition for years to come.

I bought these for my students and they love these little eggs! Makes learning about the story of Easter more engaging.

Resurrection Easter Eggs are a great way to teach your children, grandchildren the real meaning of Easter. The book that is included in the order is colourful and clearly written with children in mind.
