We love celebrating the changing seasons, and after a few weeks of snow and rain, it is finally looking like spring around here.
There are so many things to be amazed by in the spring, and so many ways to develop what Sarah Mackenzie calls, "Radiant Connection". We love to create this connection with our children through books and projects.
Some of our favorite projects throughout the years have been...
-
Planting a garden
-
Felting a toadstool
-
Dyeing eggs
-
Painting flowers
-
Reading books

As believers, many of our spring celebrations also revolve around acknowledging the death and resurrection of Jesus. Our Good Gospel Bible Resource is perfect for the weeks leading up to Easter. In the resource we introduce young children to the life, death and resurrection of Jesus through compelling Bible stories, memory verses, songs, declarations, and fine art. It's a thoughtful way to help your children connect to the goodness of God. You can download a free sample here and purchase for just $19 on our site.
One of our favorite ways to celebrate this important time is through our Passover observance. We have kept Passover regularly over the last several years, and love the way the symbolism points to deeper truths, and makes our observances and celebrations centered around resurrection even more meaningful.
Whether you are hiding eggs, matzah or simply enjoying the flowers, the new life surrounding us in the spring gives us many reasons to celebrate.

Our Saints Cards make a wonderful gift for Easter or a Christian Passover observance. Each of the 30 cards depicts a work of art about a saint of the Christian church, as well as a short biography about the lives of these brave people who loved well.
