Easter Day Stories

For a child's very first Easter where they would understand the story and the miracle of Easter, here's a way to share the religious holiday message in a way that suits little minds. 


"Once upon a time, there lived a kind and special man named Jesus. He helped people in need, shared his wisdom, and spread love wherever he went.

One day, some people who didn't understand Jesus' kindness decided they didn't want him around anymore. They took him away and placed him in a dark cave-like place this is on our Good Friday.

Many friends of Jesus were sad. They missed him dearly. But even in the darkness, something amazing happened.

On the very next morning, the ground started to rumble! The cave opened up, and bright light shone everywhere. Jesus wasn't there anymore!

His friends were filled with joy. Jesus wasn't gone, he was alive again! This special day, when Jesus came back to life, is celebrated as Easter Sunday and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.


Easter is a day to remember the good things Jesus taught us: to be kind to others, to help those in need, and to spread happiness. It's also a time to celebrate new beginnings, just like springtime when flowers bloom and baby animals are born.


Additional details to add:

  • You can mention the Easter Bunny as a friendly symbol who brings treats and hides colorful eggs for children to find, adding to the joyful spirit of Easter.

  • Explain that decorating eggs and having special meals together are a good thing and it's a beautiful day to celebrate Easter with family and friends.

Remember:

  • Keep the language simple and focus on the positive aspects of the story.

  • Use age-appropriate vocabulary and avoid dwelling on the sad parts.

  • Emphasize the message of love, new joy, hope, and beginnings associated with Easter.
