How to Play Easter Bingo
Give each player 1 Easter Bingo Card. (If you like, you can also give each player 2 or more cards.)
Have everyone cross out the “Free Space” square in the middle of their Easter Bingo Cards. Alternatively, use a Bingo chip, M&M, jellybean, bead, Lego, coin or any small toy to mark the square.
The game leader randomly picks 1 Easter Bingo Calling Card at a time from the bag or container and reveals the image on the calling card to all the players.
Players with that image on their Easter Bingo Card can cross out that square.
The first player to cross out 5 squares in a row (in any direction) and shouts “Happy Bingo Easter!” wins.

4. Do you know why we celebrate Easter?
Say
Many people hunt for Easter egg during Easter. Although Easter eggs are not mentioned in the Bible, they are used by Christians around the world to symbolize the empty tomb of Jesus. Every year on Easter Sunday, we remember and celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.

7. What did they see instead?
8. What happened to Jesus after he died on the cross?
Say
Yes, Jesus was crucified and died on the cross.
But Jesus did not remain dead for long. Jesus became alive again after 3 days!
Read
1 Corinthians 15:3-8
Discuss
9. Were the women (in Matthew 28:1-10) the only ones who saw Jesus after his resurrection?
Conclude
The women went to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus with the spices they had prepared. But the body of Jesus was not in the tomb. The angel explained to them that Jesus had risen from the dead. Jesus is alive!
Jesus is the Son of God. He came to earth to die on the cross to take the punishment for our sins. And on the third day, Jesus became alive again.
Because Jesus died on the cross, our sins can be forgiven. We can be with God and have a relationship with him. We can become his children and will one day be with him in heaven.

Share the Gospel this EasterEaster is a great time to share the message of salvation. As you celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, consider giving out unique Easter tracts such as The Lost Easter Egg Pop-up Tract during your Easter lesson, event or party. These Easter tracts feature clever pop-ups which tell the story of 3 children in search of a lost Easter egg. The 3 friends really, really want to find the lost Easter egg, just as God really, really wants to be with each one of us. |

Question – can I have your permission to send these to our kids in an Easter kit then play the game with them in our weekly public video?
Yes, certainly!
The bingo cards are a wonderful free resource for a school class with over 20 kids – thanks you very, very much! It’s also cool that there are some biblical pictures and some secular pictures so that the kids can learn a little bit about the true Easter story.
