Resurrection Egg Hunt is the perfect Easter hunt game to teach your child about the Easter story. It is based on the Bible story which is found the in book of Matthew, chapters 26 - 28. If you don't have access to a Bible you can read the story here (It will open in a new window so you can still read these instructions). It would be a good idea to read the story to your children prior to playing the game (this could be done several days before). This will make it more meaningful when they explain their symbols.
