Materials:

• White cardstock
• Craft scissors
• Q-tips
• Washable kids paint
• Paper plate
• Pencil

Instructions:

• Using the pencil, draw an egg on the white cardstock. The size of the egg can be whatever you choose it to be, big or small!
• Next, cut out the egg using the craft scissors. You now have a stencil to use to create as many eggs you want.

• Add the desired washable kids paint to a paper plate. *I chose “Easter” colors like violet, light pink, light green and light blue*.

TIP- If you don’t have light shades of colors, just mix up some white into the paint to lighten it up!

• Now the fun part! Using the q-tips, “dot” designs onto the Easter eggs! BE CREATIVE!

What is my child learning?

• Creative skills (let the little ones get as creative as they want, using different colors, creating different patterns)
• Patterns (you can talk about different patterns that you can dot on the egg; zig-zag, lines, curved lines, wavy lines, etc.)
• Colors (talk about the colors you’re using for this activity)
• Fine motor skills (q-tips are thin which helps to work on those fingers and grip, creating a perfect fine motor activity!)

I really hope you love this simple Dotted Easter Egg Activity!
