Since Easter is coming up, and my kids are now going on 3 and 5 respectively (read: more civilised), I thought it’d be fun to try out some Easter egg crafts with them!
I’d tasked my helper to save the eggshells every time we cooked eggs. She managed to save 30 eggshells for me (we eat so much eggs) and that’s when I decided that it was time to get into action!
Here are 4 easy crafts we did with the eggs and you can certainly try it out at home too!
1: Washi Tape Easter Eggs
Difficulty Level: EASY
We started off by sticking Washi tape on the eggs.
This is really a great way of starting off because it’s easy, and it looks (kind of) pretty as well!
2: Marker Pen Easter Eggs
Difficulty Level: EASY
After the kids got bored of Washi tape, I whipped out some Sharpies and we all got busy drawing on the eggs!
3: Sticker Easter Eggs
Difficulty Level: EASY
The next method of decorating the eggs was using stickers.
Actually, it’s quite similar to Washi tape, except that with stickers, it’s fun because it has pictures! So the kids got to choose what they wanted to stick on their eggs.
4: Washable Paint Easter Eggs
Difficulty Level: MODERATE
This is the REAL THING. I’d been wondering for weeks, how I could let the monsters paint the eggs without creating too much of a mess. I’d done a lot of reading and apparently, you need to use acrylic paint, which....I was pretty sure, would not come off easily. And that is a very bad idea, when it comes to toddlers.
Finally, I decided to use their washable hand paints. And WHAT A GREAT IDEA IT WAS!!!
True to form, the boys painted the eggs quietly at first, then towards the end, decided to paint each other, AND HAND PAINT MY WHITE WALLS!!!! At this point I was too busy salvaging the situation so no more photos....but Z managed to wash off all the paint from the walls.
HURRAH TO WASHABLE PAINT!
Overall, everyone really enjoyed themselves, and I’d rate this activity as a must-try if you have toddlers!
Friendly Tip: Dress them up in really old clothes for this activity.
I feel like I have really made the most of Easter this year with our holiday guests. We have done bunny crafts, chick crafts and this week was the turn of Easter egg crafts. I had my fingers crossed for the weather as I wanted an Easter egg hunt with a difference in the fairy garden and this was the only afternoon all week with rain in the forecast! Magic Easter Bunnies. The fairy garden is…
I’ve noticed more and more embroidered crafts online, have you? I used to embroider – a lot, and Rebekah Meier’s Embroidered Easter Eggs are like visiting with an old friend. If you’ve wanted to try embroidery, or maybe dust off your needlework skills, these Embroidered Easter Eggs are a good place to start. Rebekah’s designs use a simple backstitch and French knot, and these easy-to-follow video…
When my daughter was young, we would purchase butterfly larvae and watch them transform into cocoons and then emerge as bright orange butterflies. It’s like watching the drab, winter landscape transform into a more colorful spring. Perhaps that’s why I have a soft spot for these sweet, Butterfly Stamped Eggs. I think they’re a lovely way to wrap up this year’s Easter Eggstravaganza, and a…
