This month’s lapbook, we are focusing on Jesus and the events that led up to His resurrection and those following His resurrection.

I was debating whether to name this lapbook, ‘The Resurrection Lapbook,’ but decided to keep it with Easter only because it entails the whole story and not just His resurrection.

I found a nice public domain text that was written to children telling the story of Easter. It is told by ‘Aunt Charlotte’ who teaches children about Christ. I typed up the text for you to use to fill in the lapbook components.

Enjoy this lapbook as you learn about our Savior’s greatest gift.
