5 Fun Easter Activity Bag Ideas for Kids
Easter Sunday is a time when you may welcome a lot of families and visitors to your church! Providing Easter activity bags for kids who are attending service with their families will help them feel more welcome and cared for. This is a very simple thing that can make a really big impact! You could also give these out as an Easter gift to kids in Sunday School/kids programming! The plastic zipper treat bags that I have used in the past came from Oriental Trading, but they no longer sell them. These plastic zipper bags from Amazon are very similar – Make sure to check the dimensions and find the right size to hold whatever you decide to put inside them!
You can make these activity bags as simple or as elaborate as you’d like. Here are 5 fun things to add to your Easter activity bag for kids!
- Easter Wikki Stix – If you don’t know what Wikki Stix are, then let me introduce you to your new favorite thing! Wikki Stix are non-toxic and no mess fun! They easily stick to each other and to any smooth surface, but can also be easily repositioned and won’t leave any residue. This Easter set includes 50 Easter themed packs. Each pack includes 8 assorted color Wikki Stix and a paper activity sheet. They will make a wonderful addition to your Easter activity bag!
- Easter Sticker Scene – Stickers are always a big hit, which is why they are a great thing to include in your Easter activity bag! This pack includes 12 sticker scene sheets. Each sheet has 14 Easter stickers, which include Jesus’ tomb, Jesus, crosses, and more. It doesn’t include a background sheet, so you will want to include a half or quarter sheet of construction paper with it.
- He Lives Activity Book – Another great thing to add to your Easter activity bag is an activity book! This ‘He Lives’ themed activity book includes 48 pages of religious Easter based fun. This set from Oriental Trading contains 12 activity books. They also sell a few other Easter themed activity book sets, so definitely check out their website!
- Crayon Box – A small box of crayons is a necessity if you are including an activity book! Each crayon box in this set includes 4 assorted crayons, and the box says “Jesus loves me!” This set includes 48 small boxes of crayons – perfect for your Easter activity bags!
- Pastel Chenille Stems – Chenille stems (pipe cleaners) are a great addition to encourage imagination! It is so fun to see what kids create and make with them! Hobby Lobby sells this pack of 140 pastel chenille stems – perfect for Easter! Add 3-5 stems per Easter activity bag!
I hope you have a great time putting together your Easter activity bags for your church!
