10 clues from Matthew 26-28, every answer crossing at least one other. Best for ages 7+ — younger children can do the same puzzle with a grown-up reading the clues aloud, and every crossing letter they have already solved works as a hint.

The clues make more sense once they know the story: The Easter Story retold for kids — a short version with the video lesson and a quiz.

Prefer finding words to spelling them? The The Easter Story word search uses the same story’s vocabulary in an easier format — a good warm-up before this puzzle.

Younger children in the same room can color instead: the The Empty Tomb coloring page covers the same story and prints on one sheet.
