MORE OF OUR EASTER / SPRING CRAFTS & ACTIVITIES

Here are some more of our Easter crafts and activities we have been working on!

Using coffee filters the kids colored them with washable markers than sprayed them with water, set them in the sun to dry and with 2 filters squeezed together and a pipe cleaner we wrapped it around the filters and formed antennae.



then we hung them on our glass sliding door.


 We made crosses using cardboard and tissue paper. We hung them up on the boys bedroom window.

Last week at Community Bible Study they made donkeys out of a yardstick. Representing how Jesus rode in on a donkey. It was so cute when I picked them up from their classes they were riding them like the toy horses they sell at the toy store.

Than for motor skills for my 3 and 2 year old I gave them Easter eggs which I had taken apart and they had to put them back together.

This was a mess, I hid little squishy type balls in the Easter grass and with the tongs he had to find them and put them in his egg tray.

Baby Cat loved matching the crosses. I printed this file folder game from Christian Preschool Printables
