Easter Egg
E !
I haven’t done too many Easter crafts but I couldn’t help but do this very obvious letter of the Week Activity! I like using water colors because even harsh reds and greens looked muted when they are done with water colors.
- Gather your materials. You will need 2 pieces of construction paper, some fancy card stock( or regular old colored paper of any sort) scissors or a oval paper punch, glue, water colors and a marker.
- Write a large uppercase E on one piece of construction paper.
- Have your child paint the E to their liking with the water colors.
- While they are painting cut out multiple eggs from the fancy paper.
- When your little Picasso is done add the glue.
- Add the eggs, my son was so speedy with this I barely got a photo!
- Let dry
- Cut the E out and Glue to the 2nd piece of paper.

Thanks, it turned out way cuter than I was expecting, it’s now serving double duty as an Easter decoration as well as our letter of the week!
So cute! I think when we finish up the ABC’s this time I’ll be working them in depending on our mood and holidays instead of going in order again!
One question – where did you find your big punches? I can’t seem to ever find the shapes I’m looking for – I have some smaller ones for my own screabooking stuff, but with projects like this the bigger ones would be better.
Your ideas are always sooo creative!!
Just in time for Easter – genius!
I like your Envelope E. I mentioned it and linked to this post in my Letter E activities article:) Thanks!
