Help Parents Share The Easter Story
Last week a family stopped by the Scripture Union office to say hi and grab some more Bible storybooks for their daughters.
I (Amy) got to visit with their 3-year-old and we flipped through some of the books for children from the SU bookstore. Every time we turned the page she would quietly tell me what was happening. She pointed out the holes in Jesus' hands in one picture and explained "that's because they nailed him to the cross."
This 3-year-old knows the story of Easter because her parents take time to share it with her - and they use our books to do this.
Help parents in your church teach their children the Easter story by providing them with these affordable, interactive books for children. Here are some of our suggestions:
