TEN FUN EASTER ACTIVITIES FOR TODDLERS

Easter Egg Decorating

Set up a crafting station with hard-boiled eggs, non-toxic paints, stickers, and markers. Let your toddlers unleash their creativity as they decorate their own Easter eggs. This activity is not only fun but also encourages fine motor skills and artistic expression.

Easter Bunny Crafts

Get crafty with some Easter bunny-themed crafts! Provide toddlers with paper plates, cotton balls, construction paper, and glue to create adorable Easter bunny masks or puppets. This activity allows toddlers to explore their imagination while celebrating the spirit of Easter.

Egg Hunt Practice

Before the big Easter egg hunt, why not practice with a mini egg hunt at home? Let your toddler pick out an Easter basket, hide plastic eggs around the house or in the backyard, then let your toddlers search for them. This activity helps toddlers get familiar with the concept of hunting for eggs and builds excitement for the main event. We love these Yankee Toy Box  Easter baskets for egg hunts! They’re water-resistant and foldable which is great for on-the-go. They come in different styles ranging from character favorites from Jurassic World to Elsa, Marvel Avengers and baby Shark.

Easter Storytime

Gather your little ones for a special Easter-themed storytime session. Choose age-appropriate books that tell the story of Easter and the adventures of the Easter bunny. Reading together not only promotes literacy but also provides a wonderful bonding experience for families.

Bunny Hop Dance Party

Put on some lively Easter music and host a bunny hop dance party in your living room. Encourage toddlers to dance and hop around like little bunnies. This activity is guaranteed to get everyone giggling and moving.

Easter Sensory Bins

Create sensory bins filled with Easter-themed materials such as colored rice, plastic eggs, bunny figurines, and soft pastel fabrics. Let toddlers explore the different textures and colors while engaging their senses in a playful way.

Egg and Spoon Race

Organize a friendly egg and spoon race for toddlers in the backyard. Use plastic eggs and wooden spoons to make it toddler-friendly. This classic Easter game promotes balance, coordination, and friendly competition.

Easter-themed Snack Time

Whip up some tasty Easter-themed snacks with your toddlers. Get creative with bunny-shaped sandwiches, fruit skewers with pastel-colored fruits, or Easter egg-shaped cookies. Cooking together is not only fun but also teaches toddlers valuable life skills.
