Resurrection Rolls for Easter or Anytime!

We have been making these rolls for years now. I don’t even remember how long, but it seems like they have always been part of our Easter celebration. We’ve been making these longer than some of my kids have been here! The kids have always loved making, and eating, these rolls!

Resurrection Rolls

1 roll Refrigerated Crescent Roll dough, in the tube
8 marshmallows
2 TBS melted butter
4 TBS sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

We never measure. In fact, I, personally, have not assembled these awhile, as the kids take over and want to do it all themselves. Leftover butter and cinnamon sugar can be used on toast, so we don’t mind if there are leftovers.

 

 

Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. To assemble, separate the crescent roll dough.

 

 

 

Dip a marshmallow into the melted butter, then into the cinnamon sugar.

 

 

Place onto the crescent roll. Seal the edges of the crescent roll securely.

 

 

 

If they are not sealed well, the marshmallow will leak out onto the cookie sheet while baking.

Bake according to package directions.

 

 

 

As you can see, some of ours opened while baking. That’s ok, they are still delicious!

 

 

So yummy!

You can tell the Easter story while assembling these rolls, that is, in fact, why they are called Resurrection Rolls. As your assembling the rolls, tell the kids that the marshmallow represents Jesus. The melted butter and the cinnamon sugar represent the oil and spices they anointed Jesus with. The crescent roll represents the tomb. After cooking, the empty roll represents the empty tomb.

My kids would actually eat these everyday, they are that good. Everyone that I have served these to, loves them. You will be glad you tried them, even if it’s not around Easter time when you make them.

Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt for Teens

I planned my first Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt for Teens when my youngest, who was 12 at the time, requested to have an Easter Egg hunt. He was too old for the egg hunt at church, but I was glad that he didn’t think he was too old for one. Especially since that was the last year he requested one. We all had fun with our first Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt for teens!

Easter Egg Scavenger Hunts for Teens

I thought it might be fun, and more challenging to have a scavenger hunt instead of a regular Easter egg hunt. Here are a few links I found, then I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. Your clues will need to be specific for your house or yard. Not everyone has the same features. So have fun finding clues that will fit your house, yard, and family.  And you can make it different each year!

Since I did our scavenger hunt outside. I used the worksheet for the Christian Scavenger Hunt, linked above. The kids had to look up the missing word in ten Bible verses. The missing word was the item they had to find for the scavenger hunt.

I gave the worksheets to my 12, 14, 17 and 18 year olds and had them fill them out. I hide four candy filled eggs, one for each teen & pre-teen participating, at a spot outside that corresponds to the missing word.

Example: water. I put the eggs near the outside faucet. For rock, I put the eggs by the rocks of our fire pit. Of course, we have rocks as garden edging all around our house, and a gravel driveway. So they had to really hunt for the eggs. lol

It was so fun! It satisfied my 12 year olds desire to have an egg hunt. And include the teens in a fun, challenging way, when they wouldn’t have participated in a regular Easter egg hunt.

For another fun idea, use glow in the dark Easter eggs for a night time scavenger hunt!  Indoors OR outside! See how we used the glow in the dark eggs.

Here are some other fun things for Easter egg hunts!

And here are a couple of scavenger hunt games to play as a family anytime!

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
