New season and Easter feelings are in the air, and we can’t wait to be filled with the joy of creativity! Your little artists might like to explore their imaginations by painting vibrant Easter eggs too.
I just added 10 new designs to the Big Egg Tracing Page pack if you’d like an outline to follow or you can draw an oval and have your children design their own egg!
After tracing a big egg shape your children can paint their eggs for a display!
Why is painting with happy colors so important ? Here are just a few reasons:
It helps develop their fine motor skills.
Painting requires children to use their hands and fingers in precise ways, which strengthens their muscles and improves their coordination.It enhances their hand-eye coordination.
Children must coordinate their hand movements with their eyes to create the shapes and patterns they want. Use the plain egg on page 4 of the pack to have your children make their own design!It stimulates their creativity and imagination.
Painting allows children to express themselves freely and explore their own unique ideas.It's just plain fun!
Painting is a joyful activity that brings smiles to our little ones' faces.As well as painting beautiful eggs for your classroom display you could:
- Have an Easter Egg Hunt: Hide plastic eggs filled with candy or small toys around the classroom and have the students search for them.
- Make a Bunny Card: Create a simple Easter bunny card using construction paper, glue, and other materials. Here are some templates we have.
- Easter Story: Read an age-appropriate Easter or spring story to the class and discuss its message.
