Easter Crafts for Kids

Celebrate Easter and spring with these inexpensive crafts for kids that use supplies that you can easily find at home.

Easter is not too far off. Less than a week! It’s one of my favorite holidays.

First, of course: Jesus. He has solved my life’s problems, including my biggest one: me. Easter is a time for me to reflect and rejoice that He’s loved me so much for so long.

Secondly, Easter comes at a time when we are more than ready to shake off the old — the old man, the old weather, the old winter. New life is the name of the game. There’s much to celebrate, both spiritually and physically. Involving our kids in the celebration is an important part of it.

Check out these fun Easter crafts for kids as a way to celebrate all the good things of Easter. They are perfect for preparing for Easter as a family.

Confetti Eggs

Easter is a time of celebration, of new life in Christ. Confetti Eggs are a fun way to celebrate with friends and family. True, they make a bit of a mess, but that’s all part of the fun!

Mini Flower Vase

Picking dandelions and buttercups is spring pastime that children — young and old — enjoy. Let your kids make their own vases for their bouquets.

Window Clings

With some school glue and food coloring, you can make your own Easter window clings. Remember, thicker glue is better. Just make sure that you give yourself a lot of drying time.

Empty Tomb Resurrection Cake
