Watch a video about Palm Sunday. How do you think Jesus felt that day?
What does it mean to praise Jesus? Why did the people in Jerusalem praise him?
Here’s a music video about Palm Sunday. After you listen together, ask this question: How can we praise Jesus? (See if you can think of some ideas that weren’t mentioned in the video or the Bible story!)
A guy named Zechariah wrote about Palm Sunday hundreds and hundreds of years before Jesus was even born. Read what he said below. Then ask: Why do you think God told him about Jesus riding into town on a donkey? What do these verses show us about Jesus?
Zechariah 9:9 says this:
Rejoice, O people of Zion!
Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem!
Look, your king is coming to you.
He is righteous and victorious,
yet he is humble, riding on a donkey—
riding on a donkey’s colt.
