Polka Dot Eggs {Kid Craft}

Can you believe Easter is less than 10 days away? Boy – did that creep up fast on us! If you are looking to do a simple craft with your child {in honor of Easter} I have a craft for you! I call it “Polka Dot Eggs” and it’s simply allowing your child’s imagination to go wild & paint their egg cutouts however they want. I changed things up a bit and made “paint brushes” out of clothespins & pom poms. {You may remember me sharing that idea last year} YOU however – can provide and/or use whatever you have on hand. Grab the glitter, glue and fun paint colors! The fun part of this craft is that you don’t need any rules or expectations! Just let them paint {maybe even make a mess} and admire the beautiful creations they come up with! After all – that is the fun part of doing crafts!

Supplies:
* Pre-cut Egg Shapes {or cutout your own shapes out of cardstock}
* Various Colored Paints
* Pom Poms
* Clothespins

Directions:

* For the pom pom paint brushes – pinch open the clothespin and insert the pom pom. Let it close on the pom pom.
* Place some paint on a plate.
* Have your child dip their pom pom paintbrush into the paint – then on the egg cutout. Repeat until completely covered in polka dots.
* Let dry completely before displaying. Discard pom poms and rinse off clothespins with water.
