How about these New Life Seed Labels?

Note the flowers that I chose- Morning Glory? Forget-Me-Not?

Buy some seeds in bulk, glue on label, and you not only have a great Easter gift or basket stuffer, but you have a lasting object lesson.

The verse on the labels says:
“Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.” ~John 12:24

This verse can start many conversations surrounding questions like:
-What happened on the first Good Friday?
-Why did Jesus have to die?
-What did they do with Jesus' body?
-What happened on Easter Sunday?
-Why do we celebrate Easter?

Connect that with:
-What happens to a seed when you plant it?
-Does the seed stay the same after it is buried?
-If it dies, does something better come?
-How is that like Easter?

Also, if you give these to kids early and talk about the seed-dying connection with Lent, they can plant them now and have sprouts for Easter Sunday and hopefully flowers before the Easter Season is over.

Happy planting!
