Talking to children about Easter as Unitarian Universalists

Dear RE families and helpers,
We will be having a Spirit Play lesson this Sunday about the story of Easter, told through a set of 12 props placed inside hollow plastic eggs, and making a big connection to the cycle of life-death-rebirth, and we will be sharing several Children's Bibles plus a great little UU book called Meet Jesus, all of which can be borrowed for the following week.

In case you have been thinking about talking to your own or others' children about Easter as UUs, here's a wonderful short spiel from a DRE in Houston, TX, who has saved me the time to write something similar --enjoy!
Have you wondered what to tell your children about the holiday we celebrate
this Sunday? If you are a Christian UU, celebrate Jesus’ resurrection
joyfully. If the story of Jesus’ resurrection has become slightly
problematic for you, in that you may have a more symbolic understanding than
that he rose from the dead in a literal sense, know that you are not alone
and share your sense of wondering with your children.
Then again, perhaps you will find something more helpful in what Michelle
Richards wrote in her parenting blog on April 18. Take a look at

Perhaps you will have to admit to your children that this is a mystery; that
people have been trying to make sense of life and death for a very long
time. Tell them that Easter is about life: about life coming from eggs, from
seeds, from mommies and daddies, and in all sorts of stories. Tell them
that mystery is exciting; that what they feel in their hearts is precious;
that what they think is important and that they can think and feel about
life and be glad.
