Articles of Faith Easter Egg Hunt

Last year I did this Easter activity with the girls. This year I am planning to do it with the boys. Have the children go on an Easter Egg Hunt. They hunt for candy eggs and Articles of Faith eggs. I had six children in my group and so I used 36 plastic eggs. Print out the articles of faith and cut them up into "somewhat short" segments. Stick several segments into half of the eggs and put candy in the other half of the eggs and then hide them around the church building or yard. 
Tell the children to go find all the eggs and when they get back, split into two teams. Place all the Articles of Faith segment strips into a pile (and then they got to keep the candy to eat). This worked well to have them working in two groups, and each group can have a leader to help. Some of the children will be better at putting the phrases in order and some will like gluing the phrases onto a paper that someone else has put in the right order.
