A Few More Egg Printables

Just a few more quick printables. I wrote a little poem about red eggs last year, and put in on a few new cards. They're pretty plain, but I think they teach what the red egg-dyeing is all about. I also made a coloring page so kids can decorate 12 eggs, too. Remember you can check out all my printables and pascha cards with these tags.

I decided to play around with a new red egg design this year, and I made a little poem to go with it. It fits a full size page, but feel free to scale it down for cards, etc. We're almost there!

I'm not much of a poet, but this is my Red Egg Poem:

In Holy Week, we remember
the blood Christ shed,
and so we dye our eggs
a deep dark red.
The hard egg shell reminds us
of the sealed tomb of stone,
where they laid Christ body
while he went to Hades alone.
But there he took death captive
and broke the gates of Hell,
and so we shout, "Christ is risen!"
And crack our red egg shell.
