Print out encouraging Bible verses such as Psalm 55:22 or Nahum 1:7 that children can paste into the cards or help the children come up with their own personalised words of encouragement that are geared toward the card's recipient.

The arched part of the half circle is the top of the tomb and the straight edge is the bottom. Cut a 10-inch half circle out of brown or grey construction paper.
