Today, I want to share an
activity you can do with your children this weekend to visually illustrate the
resurrection of Christ. We’ve been doing
this for years. It’s super simple. Even though my children are grown up, they
still require me to make these during Easter weekend.
It’s a cooking activity
called empty tomb rolls. Take a package
of biscuits (tube), melt a stick of butter and mix some cinnamon with sugar and
finally get a package of marshmallows.
Roll each biscuit out, place a marshmallow in each biscuit. that has
been rolled in butter and cinnamon sugar.
Seal the biscuit around the marshmallow . Roll the sealed biscuit in the butter and
sugar mixture. Place each biscuit sealed
side down in a muffin cup. Bake 8 -10
minutes at temperature on side of biscuit tube.
The biscuit represents the
tomb. The marshmallow represents a full
tomb and after baked the tomb is empty.
It is a great illustration and the end product tastes like a cinnamon
roll. Children love the whole process of
making Empty Tomb Rolls from start to finish.
Have fun making these!
