Description
This powerful Easter craft brings the message of Colossians 2:13-14 to life for children of all ages! Perfect for Good Friday lessons, Easter Sunday School, children’s church, or as a meaningful VBS activity.
Children will create a visual representation of Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross, helping them understand how Christ took away our sins by “nailing them to the cross.” The hands-on craft activity includes:
- Simple outline designs of the cross with nails
- Age-appropriate instructions for both younger and older children
- Scripture focus on God’s forgiveness and grace
For younger children, the completed design allows them to color the picture and write specific sins on each nail, creating a tangible representation of Christ’s forgiveness. Older children will enjoy cutting out and assembling the pieces onto blue cardstock, developing fine motor skills while engaging with the Biblical message.
This craft works beautifully as:
- A Good Friday reflection activity
- Part of an Easter lesson series
- A take-home reminder of Christ’s sacrifice
- A discussion starter about forgiveness and redemption
Materials are simple and preparation is minimal, making this an ideal last-minute addition to your Easter teaching plans. Give your students a meaningful way to connect with the Easter story through this interactive, Scripture-based craft activity!
