Messiah: A Brickfilm (Review and Pure Flix Giveaway)





Enter into Easter with Pure Flix this Easter season. Messiah: A Brickfilm is recommended for ages five through ten although family members of all ages will be moved by this powerful rendition of the final days of Christ. This animated storytelling uses LEGO brand bricks to help younger audiences visualize what is begin depicted. This Easter perspective is perfect for kids and families to watch together with an emphasis on the Last Supper, Jesus' trial and punishment, the crucifixion, and resurrection. While The Passion of the Christ is available on Pure Flix as well, I prefer this short and biblically accurate telling of these historical events for younger viewers. While The Passion of the Christ and others end at the death of Jesus. The Messiah: A Brickfilm continues to show the resurrection as well, one of the most important reasons for celebration at Easter throughout the year. 

Here are just a few of the other available films on Pure Flix's platform this Easter:

  • Risen 
  • The Passion of the Christ 
  • The Case for Christ
  • The Chosen 
  • A.D. The Bible Continues 
  • Penitent Thief
  • & MANY more!

Use these films in your homeschool, watch them on your Spring Break, or save them for Easter weekend if you are looking for something to watch as a family. 

Messiah: A Brickfilm causes you to stop and think about the final days of Christ. Seemingly small details that I often forget about such as the fact that Christ was whipped 39 times when historically it is said that 40 times would often cause death, makes you stop and ponder. The temple veil being rent from top to bottom and Jesus' bones not being broken are all significant and being reminded that God cares about the little details so much that he will cause them to be prophesied years in advance is humbling. God cares about the big things and the little, He is often found in the details.

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history! Puritans seeking religious freedom, adventurers setting out for a new land, and those in debt hoping for a fresh start—a new life. From the first colony in Virginia, until all thirteen stars on the first American flag were represented, these cards are a perfect review for your homeschoolers. Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too!    Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America. Use the facts for dictation, copy work, or discussion in your home. Disclaimer: All co...

Truck-Themed Homeschool Chore Chart

  Use this truck-themed homeschool chore chart to keep your kids on track throughout the school week. With lessons, field trips, meals, and unexpected errands filling up your week, even the simplest chore chart can help your home run more smoothly. At times, kids are excited for the new opportunity to help out around the house and do it with joy. Other times they stomp toward the trash can with anything but a good attitude. Help keep attitudes in check by using stickers, smiley faces, or positive verbal reinforcement as your child completes each task on the chart. For the child who loves lists (and the mom) this is the perfect free printable to have on hand!   (Simply right-click, save, and print)

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
