We’ve been having fun with all kinds of Easter play activities this past week. Here’s what we’ve been up to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Easter Bunny Express – Easter Train Track<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    For this activity, the kids help the Easter bunny dig up the eggs and deliver them to the correct houses on the Easter Bunny Express train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    My 3 year old son loves his wooden train tracks and my daughter wanted an Easter themed activity so we did an Easter, construction, counting mash-up. I added in some learning elements that I thought would appeal to my 5 year old daughter. Honestly, my son would have been content driving the train around the track for hours, he didn\u2019t need any extras <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I made 21 cardboard eggs and 6 cardboard cup baskets. The kids could work on 1-1 correspondence (there are enough eggs for 1 to go to house number 1, 2 for house 2, etc.) and for a little extra challenge for my 5 year old, I added dots to the backs of the eggs for matching with the correct number. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I also intentionally left the egg design uncoloured so my daughter could colour them. She likes to add colour to anything neutral. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
