Good Friday Easter Egg Hunt

Under the cover of darkness, this truly becomes a "hunt."
Afterward, the eggs’ contents offer an opportunity for enlightening discussion.

Materials
Give the traditional Easter egg hunt a twist by staging it at night with flashlights. Set up a maze-type area outside, and then hide the plastic eggs. Put candy inside some of the eggs, and in others, flathead nails, a strip of leather, coins, a communion cup, a communion wafer, and thorns from roses (available from a florist). Also leave some of the eggs empty (signifying the empty tomb).

Debrief
Once the hunt is over, gather kids and have them open their eggs. This becomes your Bible study as you discuss each item and the role it played in Christ’s death and resurrection.
