what is going to happen

i found this great idea at

Almost Unschoolers

she gets into the science of it quite a bite

but i figured i could simplify it

and just keep it story related

for my age group

i am sure i could get into the science part and the kids could get it

but i choose to just do the story part!

here is what you will need

(i also made a mistake and used milk instead of butter but it still worked!)

we talked about why Jesus died on the cross for us

and that the marshmallow would represent Jesus body

and then we talked about what happened after he died

and that his body was prepared with oil and spices

and that the milk would be the oil and the cinnamon and sugar would be the spices

we then had to seal the marshmallow into the "tomb" which was the crescent roll.

we then talked about what happened to Jesus after 3 days

and the kids all knew that he would rise from the dead

we then placed the sealed marshmallows in the oven 

and when they were finished we discovered

that our "tomb" was empty just like Jesus' tomb.

this was an awesome little experiment/story telling activity

that i highly recommend to all to do with your kiddos!

its super simple and a wonderful story to tell along with it.

and the kids LOVED the taste of the marshmallow crescent rolls!

we also popped a few marshmallows in the microwave 

and made a huge sticky mess :)

and because i took this idea from Almost Unschoolers

-its great to be a daycare provider!
