I've also included coloring pages with crosses, flowers, and Bible verses: John 3:16 and 1 Peter 1:3. These activities will be perfect for quiet time, morning baskets, Sunday school, or family devotion activities. Quick peek at what’s inside: Sticker sheets (pages 2–4): “Happy Easter” carrots, a caterpillar & butterfly, and several cross/faith-themed stickers (e.g., “Hosanna in the Highest,” “He is Risen,” "tetelestai/it is finished,” “the tomb was empty,” “hallelujah what a savior,” “Jesus lives,” etc.). Coloring-style cross pages with verses (pages 5–6): John 3:16 and 1 Peter 1:3. Large single stickers (pages 7–8): “hosanna in the highest” and “hallelujah what a savior.” See example images of what's inside. pdf downloadable file, 8 pages including cover page.
