Printable Easter Activities for kids

Go away, winter rain, enough is enough! At some point you start to actively beat the winter blues by bringing more colour into the home. Right? Anyway, we have the habit of slowly cluttering the living room with colourful arts & crafts projects from school and from home. It really does lift the spirit! And as I’m quite reluctant to thrown them out, the living room really is a happy mess (Sorry Miss Kondo!). So, what to do? Well, with Spring and Easter around the corner I designed a few printable Easter activities for my kids, and I share them on this page.

Essentially, they’re a few pages of Easter themed activities, but you can use them in different ways. I mean, they’re templates that you can decorate in different ways. You can use crayons, paint, mozaics, glitter, anything to your fancy.  

Please feel free to print as many as you need, making long banners or multiple lacing art project – all perfectly fine!

Printable Easter Activities

If you’re looking for a few hands-on easy-to-do-at-home crafts ideas, you’re are the right place. All you need is paper, a printer, a pair of scissors, colouring pencils and thread. 

Print the templates (below), give them to your kids and you can quietly sit down down and enjoy your coffee.SaveSave

What’s included in the free printable Easter Activities pack?

1. Easter Bunny Colouring Page

First of all, the pack contains a lovely colouring page of an Easter bunny holding a big Easter egg. It reads ‘Hoppy Easter’. A simple, fun colouring page that is easy enough for preschoolers, but that can be extensively decorated by older primary school kids. Perhaps you’d like to challenge older kids with other techniques, such as mosaics from pieces of coloured paper.

Do your kids love colouring? Make sure you browse my Free Downloads! For example, print these pretty colouring banners, so your kids can decorate their bedroom or prepare for their birthday party! Or, for a more educational content, colour the clock, teach the seasons,

2. Easter egg bunting colouring pages

Three pages with 6 Easter egg templates in total. Print as many as you wish, put all the kids to work to make a nice long banner! This is a nice idea for playdates.

3. Two lacing templates

Print these templates on heavy paper (card stock is fine) and poke small holes to facilitate the lacing. Keep it easy for young kids and more elaborate for older kids. Give the child a blunt needle and explain the lacing. Let them try for themselves, but keep an eye on them. Surely they will be proud of the result!

If your kids like lacing, you could try a different take on it: lacing clay flowers! Make flowers (or other shapes) from salt dough and decorate them by lacing. 

4. ‘Finish the pattern’

The Easter egg decoration has partly been erased, so the child can to complete it as well as he/she can. Essentially this is a ‘draw-the-other-half’ or symmetry worksheet. I also made a Christmas themed version with Xmas tree baubles, gingerbread men and stars – you’ll find it here (pin of save for the winter holidays!).

I really hope you’ll enjoy these printable Easter crafts activities. If you have questions or comments, let me know!

Feel free to browse the ‘Free downloads‘ section. All designs have been made by me personally and have been tested with my best and most sincere judging panel, my kids and their friends ; )

You’ll find ideas for play dates, such as ‘Monster game with play dough‘ (a favourite with my 6-yo daughter), a DIY marble game. Or, how about making your own games? Learn to design a maze, or play a hilarious writing/drawing game. Oh, and remember Hangman? Here you’ll find rules and variations (the favourite game of my 9 yo to play in the train).

And I’m saving the best for last (because I really like to play these myself): abstract pen-and-paper games. Perfect solution whenever you need to kill time. I can wholeheartedly recommend these!

Here’s another unplugged activity: make your own word search! My son is really into tis at the moment.
