This resource is a fantastic way to encourage creativity and artistic expression. Perfect for classroom Easter celebrations, this engaging task allows students to decorate their own Easter eggs using a variety of art and craft materials. With multiple templates to choose from, children can explore patterns, colours, and textures to create their very own Easter egg designs!

How to Complete:

1. Students colour and decorate their Easter egg template using their chosen materials.
2. Encourage them to create patterns, textures, and unique designs using a mix of cut-out paper, stickers, or craft embellishments.
3. Create a beautiful display by hanging the completed Easter egg designs around our Easter banners or posters.

Additional Tips:

1. Print the templates on white or coloured cardstock. Provide art and craft supplies such as pastels, markers, paint, glitter glue, pom-poms, stickers, sequins, pipe cleaners and tissue paper.
2. Allow students to mix different materials and colours to make their eggs unique.
3. Use various tools, such as sponges, cotton swabs, and stamps, to create different textures and effects.
4. Older students could use fine liner pens to create intricate patterns in the different sections of the egg. Cut out the completed eggs and paste them on bright coloured cardstock to make their designs pop.
5. Younger students may benefit from having the templates enlarged to A3.

Extension Ideas:

1. Easter Patterns: Incorporate patterns and symmetry by having students use repeating shapes and colours in their designs.
2. Writing Activity: Ask students to write a description of their egg.

This fun, low-prep craft activity is a perfect way to bring hands-on learning and creativity to your Easter-themed lessons.
