Lenten Projects for Children (& Others)
A Lenten Buddy Assign each child a Lenten buddy. Before worship each child secretly places a Bible verse, a poem, a drawing, a treasure from a nature walk, etc... in the pew where the buddy sits. Plan a celebration time on Palm Sunday to introduce the child and buddy.
Feeling Better Box Students decorate a Chinese take out box. Each student places in the box something to comfort - a Bible verse, a poem, a drawing. The child keeps the box until s/he meets someone who needs comforting. Prayer time can include the question, "Did anyone share a Feeling Better Box this week?" 
AnyBunny for Lunch? Each child prepares 5 brown bags decorated as bunnies (See picture below). Fill each bag with non-perishable items for lunch during the school holidays. The lunch bags can be distributed through local food pantries: 5 bags equal one week of lunches for a child while school is on holiday. (Ideas for lunch contents: Spam, tuna, crackers, juice box, granola bar, individual packages of dried fruit, chips ...)
