Since we were, as usual, scrambling to find something for the kids the day before our meeting - these eggs came to mind and we set out to work. Each egg contains a small object that relates to the Easter story and comes with a Bible verse and short summary or explanation of what happened. With a friend (and native-Slovak speaker), we set out to translating all the stories and finding and marking all the verses in a Slovak Bible.
With the help of my friend and anyone else who dared walk past my desk of scattered papers, Bibles, dictionaries and eggs - I got all 12 eggs and stories written out in Slovak just in time for a nap and a bus ride to the village. Twice I was able to use these eggs to successfully keep large groups of young children relatively engaged! Hooray!
