Here is one easter game I made.
I used the trivia questions from this game - holy week game questions
I copied them onto blue cardstock so they'd be sturdier. I did take out some of the questions that I felt were too detailed or were redundant. I think I ended up with 40 some questions.
I also created the Holy Week day cards, to be collected in the game. I figured out how to turn it into a PDF - let's see if I can figure out how to host it If these PDF's don't work for some reason, let me know - they work fine for me, but that might not mean much I copied these onto white cardstock.

To make the gameboard - I cut out the gameboard squares and glued them down in the order I wanted them. I spread out the days of the week and the gain a day/lose a day pieces. I copied a map of Jerusalem in Jesus' time out of my Bible, enlarged it, and cut that out and glued it onto the board. Then I copied the whole thing onto 2 pieces cardstock. (I have had so much fun since we bought a copy machine ) And then taped them together. Eventually I'll probably laminate it or cover it with contact paper or something. You could skip all the copying and glue the pieces right into a file folder, if you wanted.
The object of the game is to collect all 8 days of Holy Week. You start on Palm Sunday - roll the die and move. If you land on a day of the week, you get a trivia question. If you get it right, you get that day of the week. Sometimes you end up circling the board a lot, but it moves pretty quickly. We did have a rule where you could move in either direction, and that helped, but then realized we were all avoiding the lose a day/lose a turn spots and always landing on the gain a day spot. Not exactly what I was going for, LOL.
