Stations of the Cross Activity










Grandma sent a baggie full of 14 items for the kids. Each station has an item that corresponds to it so when we read the station they find the item. Such a fun activity and I put pictures of the items because it is super easy to get together. Gavin (2) even has fun with it and understands. I heard him saying as he opened the bible the other day Jesus fall and Jesus die first time. My big kids are playing stations of the cross right now with their items. It is kind of cool that they take their bags and play stations of the cross together. Tristan knows all of them.
First Station - Jesus is condemned to death - rope
Second Station - Jesus takes his cross - Popsicle stick cross
Third Station - Jesus falls for the first time -bandaid
Fourth Station - Jesus meets his mother -small statue of Mary
