Explore the Easter Story with Resurrection Clue Hunt! 
Resurrection Clue Hunt
Break from the traditional Easter activities this season and take your kids on a Resurrection Clue Hunt!

This new print-and-play game from Karl Bastian is designed to be used with ages 7-13.  During gameplay, explorers search for clues that tell the story of Jesus' death and resurrection. However, 3 clues are missing!

It's half-adventure activity, half-teaching opportunity!  Your leaders can use it with small groups, while parents can add some fun to family devotion time at home!

The 32-page PDF download features everything you need to play the classic deduction game, including 20 devotional "Fact Sheets" that correspond to characters, objects, and locations featured on the beautifully-illustrated playing cards.  Kids are encouraged to look up Bible verses, answer discussion questions, and understand how the clues fit together to shape the resurrection story!

It's time to memorize with DiscipleTown!
"How to Memorize God's Word"The idea of memorizing Scripture can intimidate both kids and adults!  Get started with our new How to Memorize God's Word unit, the latest DiscipleTown Kid's Church curriculum from Karl Bastian and DiscipleLand.

Children will appreciate the incredible mind that God has given them, the importance of memorizing God's Word, and the benefits of doing so.

Furthermore, kids will learn to meditate on Scripture in order to allow it to sink into their very characters and wills, resulting in deeper, richer insights.

Using fun science, they'll know that God has wired them to learn and to apply what they learn.
