    Jesus In The Tomb: give each child a marshmallow. Tell them that it represents Jesus. Have them roll it in melted butter (the anointing oil). Then roll marshmallow in cinnamon (the anointing spices). Place marshmallow on the Crescent roll in center of triangle of dough (the tomb). Fold the dough around the marshmallow, so that Marshmallow is "buried" in its tomb. Bake crescent roll according to directions on package. Have children take role of guards at Jesus' tomb; have them stand guard at the oven. Take roll out of oven and let cool. When the tomb is open, the marshmallow will be gone; just like Jesus' body was gone! The roll tastes like a cinnamon roll.
