What Do These Eggs Mean? Easter Skits for Church

WHAT

A fun, high-energy Easter skit designed especially for children. Excited kids talk nonstop about Easter eggs, candy, and the Easter Bunny—until an adult (or older child) asks a simple question that changes everything: “Do you know what Easter is really about?”
Each Easter egg becomes a teaching tool that gently and clearly explains the story of Jesus’ death and resurrection.

THEME

Easter is not about eggs or candy—it is about Jesus, His sacrifice, and new life.
