60 Egg Activities for Kids

With Spring holidays right round the corner and Egg Week just behind us, this seemed like a good time to share the ginormous list of kid-friendly egg activities for Easter and Easter Egg Hunts.

Because the list is so large, I’ve broken it down into these categories: Egg Decorating, Plastic Eggs, Games, Painting and Sculpture, Crafts, and Science.

I hope you’ll enjoy getting inspired from and pinning these ideas as much as I enjoyed assembling this eggy line-up. If you have more ideas to share, please add them to a comment so that others can enjoy them too.
