Easter is one of my favorite holidays! Personally, I love singing and worshiping our risen Savior in church and all of the fun activities we do with our young children. While I may not have been able to discuss the true meaning when I taught in public schools, that didn’t stop me from bringing Easter fun into our learning. Here are some fun ideas on how you can incorporate Easter themes and hands-on learning in Kindergarten.
STEM Activities
By now, you should know my love for STEM learning. These activities inspire young learners to use their problem-solving skills to solve the challenges.
My Easter STEM Set #1 includes activities such as egg stacking and jelly bean predictions.
My Easter STEM Learning Set #2 includes even more hands-on activities featuring egg experiments and marshmallow bunnies.
Math Activities
Another way to include Easter fun and learning is with math centers. Your students will enjoy sorting colors, counting manipulatives, strengthening fine motor skills, and following directions with my Easter Themed Math Centers set. This set includes five different center options with at least eight cards for each center.
Crafts and Writing Activities
My Easter Crafts and Writing Activities set is full of hands-on learning opportunities. Each craft includes several writing prompts. I also include a Resource List with free YouTube links to videos of read alouds, songs, etc., for you to use in your classroom discussions. Your students will love learning with these fun Easter crafts and writing prompts!
Drawing and Writing
If writing and directed drawings are your preference, I’ve got you covered. My Easter Directed Drawings set includes nine images with seven different printable options for each so you can easily differentiate. Images include: Easter bunny, peep, lily, church, chocolate bunny, Easter basket, Easter egg, and carrot.
I also have a Draw & Write Easter Prompts set. Your students will love completing these drawing and writing activities.
Sensory Bins
You can incorporate Easter fun and learning with my Easter Sensory Bin activities. Not only are these a great sensory activity, they include math and literacy practice, too.
As you can see, there are so many fun math, literacy, STEM, and hands-on activities that you can do that include Easter themes this time of year. I’m always a big fan of keeping students engaged with activities that reflect the current season and holiday.
