Take an old shoe box and cut holes big enough for eggs to just fit through.

Easter Egg Memory - for this game I used foam blocks, but you could also use pom poms or any other small object you have 2 of. Since C is new to the game of memory, I only did 3 matches. But you can do more depending on the level of your child.

Sorting eggs by color in a painted egg carton

 J had fun just playing with the eggs and carton

Putting plastic eggs through a hole in an oatmeal container.

Eggs in a tissue box
Need plastic Easter eggs? You can find some here.

Using jelly bean cut outs to trace foam letters. We have other colors too. We sorted them and made patterns.

A few ideas from past posts

 

Mix and match eggs - match the egg to the picture

Paint using plastic eggs

Water painting with Easter Egg Coloring kit rollers

Hand print bunny cards

Tot School

C had to build flowers like the cards
I made these using construction paper. I wish I had a flower shape cartridge in my Cricut, that would have been so much quicker! :)

I printed a variety of flowers in different colors in rows and then cut them into strips. C had to cut them out and sort, then glue to make flower gardens. She only did about 3 of the strips.

Sticking flowers in play dough - first in a ball on the table, then we put the ball of play dough back in the container and she stuck the flowers in again.

 

Sorting pentagons, hexagons and octagons.

Playing with pom poms and a muffin tin. She wasn't too into putting them in the tin, but she liked taking them out to put in that wooden tray.
