Easter Art and Activities

Kia Ora Families! In this week leading up to Easter I thought I would post Easter-themed activities you may be interested in giving a go at home this week. Enjoy!

An Easter Story Wreath

Download, print and colour the printables in the PDF then sequence the story, sticking it to a circle piece of paper or card.

Cross Mosaic

Draw the outline of a cross on a piece of paper. Use ripped up paper, card, wrapping paper, magazines etc to create a mosic, sticking different colours on the inside of the cross to the background for the best effect.

Painters Tape Cross

Create a cross in the middle of a page using painters tape (you could also use masking tape or washi/paper tape). Children can then paint, dye or colour the rest of the page. Once it has dried remove the tape. 

Nature Resurrection Scene

Follow the instructions in the artical below or find what you can in your garden to make your own Easter Garden.

Roll away the Stone

Create a cut and paste tomb using different coloured pieces of paper, or colouring the paper the colours you want. If you have one, use a split pin to attach the stone in front of the tomb so that you can roll it away.

Easter Story Sequencing and Matching

Print and cut out the sequencing cards to retell the Easter story.
Cut out the letters, mix up and match to create the sentence on the final page.
