Easter Bible Verses for Kids – Free Printable Memory Verses

Celebrating Easter with kids is such a fun experience. There’s Easter baskets to fill, crafts to complete, and so many more Spring festivities.

But how do you keep your kids’ focus on the spiritual significance of Easter and the Resurrection? Practicing and memorizing easy Easter Bible verses for kids is a great way to make sure that all the fun and cutesy decor doesn’t crowd out the real sacrifice of Jesus we are celebrating.

My kids practice Easter Bible verses at church in Sunday School and they practice them at preschool, but it’s important that we reinforce those teachings at home.

I love creating things and I love anything cute. With three boys at home, I’ll take any excuse to play with the fun, pastel colors of Easter, which is why I created this free Easter Bible Verses for Kids printable.

Actually, technically it’s two free Easter Bible verses for Kids printables — one in full-color, one in black-and-white, so the kids can color it in, depending on your preference. Both are free to download (the download instructions are at the bottom of this post).

How to Utilize the Easter Bible Verses for Kids Printable

At the risk of stating the obvious, the primary purpose of the Easter eggs printable is to help kids memorize the Bible verses.

Still, there’s several different ways you can do this:

Easter Egg Bible Verses Coloring Activity

First, you can use them as a simple Easter egg coloring activity (if you download and print out the black-and-white version). Kids who can read independently can read and practice the Easter Bible verses by themselves. If your kids are not yet reading, or are not reading comfortably, you can read the verses for them.

For readers and non-readers alike, Bible verse memorization activities tend to be more enjoyable for the kids when an adult helps “quiz” them.

Easter Egg Bible Verses Cutting Activity

Second, you can treat this as an opportunity for kids to practice their cutting skills. This can be done with either the black-and-white or the full-color version of the Easter egg Bible verses. Watch kids carefully if you choose this option. My kids have easy safety scissors and while they’ve never hurt themselves, they have managed to cut holes in their shirts. Super fun times.

Once the kids have cut out the Easter egg Bible verses, they can keep them in an envelope or ziplock baggy for when they’re ready to practice memorizing them.

Easter Egg Bible Verses Memorization Rings

The third (and my preferred) activity you can do with these is cut out the Easter egg Bible verses (either you cut them or let the kids cut them). You can put a very small hole in the top or, when cutting them out, you can leave a little extra white space attached to your egg and punch a hole there.

Then you can laminate the Easter eggs and use the hole to put them on a little binder ring. The laminating keeps the little Easter eggs from getting wrinkled and ruined and the binder ring keeps them all in one handy little place.

If you don’t have a laminator, you could use contact paper or, if you’re really in a pinch, you can use packing tape as a make-shift laminator.

(If you’re in the market for a reasonably-priced laminator, I have this one and I LOVE IT. It’s always relatively affordable and it’s incredibly easy to use. You just plug it in, put your paper in the plastic envelope, and send it through the laminator — done!).
