Eggstra Special Activities

With Easter just around the corner, it's time to start thinking of a variety of preschool Easter crafts to help celebrate the season. Easter lends itself well to crafts, since one of the main ways it's celebrated contemporarily is by decorating eggs.

While these children may be a little too young for preschool Easter crafts with real Easter eggs, plastic or play dough eggs make a great, less breakable substitute. For the brave and the not so faint of heart, real eggs can be used however they must be hard-boiled first to avoid any broken eggs on the floor.

If the idea of bringing eggs and dye into the preschool classroom is a little too frightening, try making stained glass Easter eggs from contact paper or waxed paper. Once the egg shapes have been cut out, decorate the shape with tissue paper or construction paper, glitter, or whatever else is in the craft supply cupboard. If using waxed paper don't forget to use a little glue to get the tissue paper the stick.

Or try this craft which involves eggs made from coffee filters. Cut out a number of egg shapes from coffee filters and give a few to each child. The children are to decorate their eggs using spray bottles filled with watered-down paint for a nice tie-dyed effect. They can also decorate the eggs with markers and then spray the eggs with water from a spray bottle for a similar design result.

Natural Nest

For a more offbeat Easter craft, try this one where the kids make bird's nests from real mud, sticks, twigs, and other things found outside. If the weather permits, go on a nature walk to collect materials for the nest. Once the nests are assembled, they make a great place to store and display decorated Easter eggs.

Another great subject for preschool Easter crafts is the Easter bunny, seeing as how the bunny has become the central image for the holiday, at least where children are concerned.

In this craft, children create their own bunny masks from paper plates. Give each child one paper plate with eye holes cut out. They can decorate their masks with yarn or string for whiskers, pom poms for teeth, and construction paper or another paper plate cut in half and painted pink for the ears. Once they've finished decorating their masks, punch a hole in each side and use an elastic or piece of string to hold the mask in place around the child's head.

Finally, here's a fun craft that helps to teach children about the way plants grow called "Bunny in the Grass". To begin, each child will need a small pot or cup filled with potting soil. Sprinkle a small amount of grass seeds into the pot and cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil.

For the next part of these presechool Easter crafts, children will create a bunny from a craft stick. They can decorate the bunny with felt ears, googly eyes, a pom pom note, and yarn whiskers. Place the craft stick in the pot and set the pots near a sunny window to allow the grass to grow. In a few weeks, the bunny's garden will be green with grass. Give a prize to the child who grows the most grass, and the tallest blade of grass.

One of the most fun and memorable times of the year is Easter. From the time children are small, they help to color beautiful, colorful Easter eggs and create beautiful Easter crafts. Most homes in the United States, traditionally will have colored Easter eggs on display on Easter Sunday. Easter crafts and egg coloring are fun projects that the whole family can participate in doing. Children really like the fun involved in coloring eggs and doing other Easter crafts. Any Easter crafts that display color, will attract the attention of kids and allow them to be creative as they use their imagination.
