PASS THE CROSS - Have your guests sit in a circle, play Christian music, and have them pass a wooden cross to the child on their right. When the music stops, whoever is holding the cross is out. Game continues until one child remains who is then the winner.
CHRISTIAN EGGS - If you do decide to color eggs, then opt to put Christian messages on the eggs using a wax crayon to keep the dye from adhering to the words. Write Easter messages like, "He Is Risen", "Jesus Died For You", "Jesus Loves You", etc.

Put some black paint in a paper plate. Have children dip one hand in the paint and make a handprint on the center of a piece of card stock. Once it is dried, turn it upside down, with the fingers pointing downward. The fingers will be the lamb's legs and the thumb will be the tail. Glue pieces of cotton onto the body (the palm portion of the picture). Cut out small ovals for the lamb's head. Glue the head in place and give each one a wiggly eye.
CHRISTIAN BOOKMARKERS - Depending upon the age of your participants, either cut out pieces of card stock in the shape of bookmarkers prior to the party, or give everyone a pair of scissors and pieces of card stock and let them cut out their own bookmarkers. also give everyone Christian Easter stickers, glue, glitter, etc. to decorate the bookmarkers.

Use your bracelet to share your faith.
Black bead - Sin that separates us from God
Red bead - Jesus' shed blood on the cross to pay for our sins
White bead - Jesus' blood washes away all of our sin
Blue bead - Water baptism the outward sign of our faith
Green bead - Our faith grows as we read the Bible and pray
