Where Do Easter Eggs Come From?
Eggs have been used to celebrate Easter for a very long time. There are a lot of reasons for using eggs to celebrate the day Jesus became alive again after he died. An egg has three sections, the outer shell, the white inside and the yellow center, but is one living thing like the Trinity. Some people use also plastic or empty eggs to show that Jesus’ grave was empty when he came back to life.
The jigsaw puzzle below is of Easter eggs. To play it, just click and hold on the pieces then slide them into place. If you can’t see or play the puzzle below, click on the image at the bottom of the post to go to the jigsaw puzzle website.
