Looking for something meaningful you can do with your children to prepare for Easter? Jesus--The Life-Giver is a family devotional for Easter week (Palm Sunday through Easter Sunday) focusing on the life we can have in Christ. We designed the devotional specifically to meet the needs of homeschool families who were looking for something fun, exciting, and meaningful they could do with their children to prepare for Easter.
Children make their own flower garden while they listen!
Every day, children get to add a flower to their own paper flower garden. The color of the flower's backing, as well as the object/picture in the center of the flower, are all coordinated to reinforce the devotional's message.
For example, on the first day the children either glue a tiny cotton ball (physical version) or have a snowflake to decorate around (e-book version) on the center of their flower to remind them of God's plan to bring us life. They then glue the flower to a black backing to remind them of how hopeless our hearts are without Jesus.

Note to those who used this product in 2006: Although the title and child's activity remains the same, we completely redid the text in 2007.

Available As Both A Physical Kit And an E-Book!
Physical Kit
The physical kit comes with a gold pen (which children will love!) and everything necessary to complete the flower garden. The only things you will need are scissors, glue, and coloring utensils! The cost is $9.99 for the devotional kit (includes devotional and supplies for one child). Have more than one child? Additional child sets, when purchased with the kit, are just $3.99 ($4.99 if purchased separately).
E-Book
Save money by buying the devotional in an e-book form! The devotional text is basically the same, but instead of coming with all the supplies to make a flower garden, the e-book gives you patterns and instructions for easily making the gardens out of predominately household supplies. The only additional items besides scissors, coloring utensils, and glue you will need are a container (flower pot, bowl, or basket), popsicle sticks to hold the flowers in the container, various colored cardstock paper to print out the flowers on/back them, and dry beans or Styrofoam to hold the flowers inside the container. We've really tried to keep it simple--and affordable. The e-book is only $7.99, and includes the rights to print out flower patterns for ALL your children.
Every month we send out free emails containing a short update, thought, story, homeschool tip, and hymn/poem.
