We made an Easter Garden for our Toddler Group Story Time. A very simple but effective visual aid. Older children could make their own.
You need
Tray or baking tin (I used a baking tin)
Foil to cover the tray/tin
Potting compost
Moss (if you do this ahead you could plant seeds – I wasn’t that organised)
Small stones for the path
Twigs for trees (we didn’t add the crosses as the children are so young.But we did talk about them in the story)
Air drying clay for the tomb
Large stone to put by the tombs entrance
Air drying clay rolled into balls to stick the twigs into to secure them. Cover the balls of clay with compost.
This would be a great activity to do during the Easter holiday. You could have a competition to see who puts the most effort into making their garden.
