This is a cross the children can make after you have read many stories to them about the life and resurrection of Jesus.

Life of Jesus Cross: Easter Craft for Kids

Print the cross template onto cardstock to use as a pattern. Trace this cross pattern onto construction paper and cut it out (or have the children cut it out). Print the Life of Jesus Cards onto cardstock and cut out each piece (or have the children cut them out). The card that says “Life of Jesus” should go in the middle. The other cards surround it. Have children place their cards on the cross, then glue them. Ask children to retell the story of Jesus while pointing to each picture.

This set of Life of Jesus cards can also be used as sequencing cards.

If you have a lot of students and want to cut costs, you don’t have to use cardstock , and you can print in grayscale and make copies if you don’t want to use color ink. The grayscale pictures do look nice when you glue them to colorful construction paper.
