  • DO: Point out the closed tomb at the top of the page and the empty tomb with Jesus standing nearby at the bottom. Encourage the children to use a marker to find their way through the maze from the closed tomb at the top of the page to the open tomb with Jesus.
  • SAY: “What do you see at the top of the page? Yes, a closed tomb. Some people hurt Jesus, and He died. Then they placed His body in the tomb and rolled a big heavy stone over the entrance. But three days later—count with me, one, two, three—Jesus came back! (Point the open tomb at the bottom of the page.) Yes! Jesus is alive! Let’s see if we can figure out how to make it through the maze from the closed tomb at the top to the empty tomb at the bottom! Way to go, friends! You found your way through the maze. I’m so glad to know that our friend Jesus is alive! What a wonderful friend He is. Tell me, who wants to be your friend forever? [Bottom Line] Jesus wants to be my friend forever.”
