(photo from Modern Parents Messy Kids)
Unfortunately, I don't have piles of paint chips lying around, but I do have tons of scrapbook paper scraps that I've been saving for just this sort of activity. I pulled out a bunch of "Eastery" colored papers, and traced egg shapes on the back. (I used the template available from the above link). Then we got to work. My almost-8-year-old, and my newly-4-year-old both had a fabulous time cutting them out. I thought about "fixing" the ones that my younger daughter cut, but then decided against it. I love that she was able to help!
(Sorry for not "staging" my photo better, lol. I was in a hurry!)
Can you guess which ones my 4-year-old cut?
It was a great activity for the 3 of us to do together, and I'm thinking about making a few more garlands to put up elsewhere in our home, too.
