We love this peek through book. There’s a lot more books in this series, but finding bunny is a fun adventure for young kids.
This bunny finger puppet book is a blast for young children!
My kids are still obsessed with sound books (they’re 4 and 2 right now), and I just found out about this new Easter sounds book! Press the super-easy-to-press buttons to hear church bells ringing, ducks quacking, and more.
For 3+:
We love these craft books! They’re packed full of fun activities to do together. Younger kids can have help from adults, or older kids can craft all on their own.
This wipe-clean Easter activity book comes with a pen. Perfect for travel and use at a restaurant!
Sticker books are also perfect to use whenever you need them to focus on a task while waiting. This littler stickers one is perfect for little hands.
Magic painting books are a HUGE hit in our house! Sometimes my kids will just plop down and paint to whole book. This first painting is aimed at younger kids, while older kids can tackle the designs of the more complex magic painting books better.

Our favorite Easter, Lent, and Passover books for adults
Christ in the Passover by Ciel and Moishe Rosen — written by Jewish believers in Christ, this book is a good source for connecting the symbolism of the Passover (Old Testament) to Jesus (New Testament).
Surprised by Hope by N.T. Wright— Bible scholar N.T. Wright does a thorough job of showing how the implications of Christ’s resurrection impacts our lives today and why Christians should be agents of transformation.
Every Moment Holy, Volume 1 by Douglas Kaine McKelvey — this is simply a book of prayers for every day ordinary moments. Open it up every day or every once in a while, either way it’s an amazing resource to guide prayer in the ordinariness of life.
Prayer: Forty Days of Practice by Justin McRoberts and Scott Erickson — I recently started reading this book and have been so encourage by the encouragement to pray. Perfect for the season of Lent, or anytime really!
