Silly Rabbit, Easter Is for Jesus: A Fun & Faith-Filled Easter Activity for Kids

Easter is such a meaningful time of year—a season full of hope, reflection, and celebration. For families who live close to the land, raise kids in faith, and embrace a slower, more intentional pace of life, it’s more than just egg hunts and chocolate bunnies. It’s about the resurrection of Jesus and the message that He conquered death for us all.

That’s why I created a printable coloring sheet that keeps the focus right where it belongs: “Silly Rabbit, Easter Is for Jesus.” It’s a sweet, faith-based Easter activity your kids can enjoy at the table while you finish up Sunday dinner or get ready for church. Whether you’re spending the day with your family at home, gathering with your church community, or helping in Sunday school, this printable makes it easy to center Easter around Jesus—even with little ones.

If you’re looking for non-candy Easter activities, this coloring page is an easy win. It gives your kids something to do while also reinforcing the Easter story in a way that feels fun, not forced. Many families use it as part of their Easter morning traditions, laying it out on the kitchen table with a set of crayons or including it in a Sunday school activity packet. Some print it off to add to their children’s Easter baskets as a meaningful, candy-free surprise.

This printable also makes a great addition to your faith-based Easter crafts. While there are plenty of bunny-themed coloring sheets out there, this one gently reminds our kids (and us!) that the real celebration is all about the empty tomb. If you want to add even more meaning to your Easter morning, consider setting up a quiet little space where kids can color while listening to the Easter story from the book of Luke or watching a short Bible-based video about Jesus’ resurrection.

There are so many ways to shift the focus away from just candy and gifts—whether it’s with a printable like this one, reading the Easter story as a family, or simply talking to your kids about what Easter means to you. It’s amazing how even something as small as a coloring page can open the door to bigger conversations.

We know life with young kids—especially when you’re ranching, homesteading, or living rurally—can be loud, busy, and sometimes chaotic. But even in the everyday moments, we have opportunities to plant seeds of faith. And that’s exactly what this printable is for.
