Matching Easter Eggs Felt Board Activity

As Easter is around the corner, creating activities for young children whether for home or an early childhood setting does not have to be complicated. These matching felt eggs can be used on a flannel board or any piece of felt for children to enjoy. Matching allows young children to recognize colors and design. An option for this activity is to make different sizes and then provide opportunities for children to label or find the egg according to the request, for instance, "find me the biggest blue egg or find me the smallest green egg".


Sung to the tune of I’m a Little Teapot

I’m an Easter Egg, just look at me

I’m as happy as I can be

I have lots of colors, no longer white

With polka dots, I’m such a sight!

Spring Felt Board Activities

Five Little Kites

One little kite in the sky so blue,
Along came another, then there were two.
Two little kites, flying high above me.
Along came another, then there were three
Three little kites, just watch them soar
Along came another, then there were four.
Four little kites, so high and alive
Along came another, then there were five.
Five little kites dancing across the sky,

What a sight to see, way up so high!

Five umbrellas waiting for rain to pour

One was picked, and now there are four

Four umbrellas, saying pick me, pick me!

One was taken, and now there are three

Three umbrellas, wondering what to do

One was chosen, and now there are two

Two umbrellas waiting for some fun

One was picked and now there is one

One little umbrella, the rain is all done

He went home and now there are none
