Lazarus lives again

Lesson theme: Lazarus is risen

Supplies: 2 or more rolls of toilet paper, a timer, paper plates, random craft supplies

Ahead of time:

Cut a wide crescent shape in the mid/top of one paper plate to make an eye hole for a mummy mask.  Glue the paper plate then wrap with toilet paper to make a mummy look.  Add crafting decorations as desired

When they arrive:

Tell them the story of Lazarus.  When finished play the game. 

Game:

Divide the kids into two teams.  Each team has exactly 3 minutes to wrap one of the kids up into a mummy shape.  Have someone come in to judge the better mummy.  That team wins.

After the game, allow each child to design a mummy mask like the one you premade. 

If time allows ask questions about the story.
