Crafty Kids: Eggs


Who knew kids would like a storytime about eggs?

Sign: Egg

Book: Roly Poly Egg by Kali Stileman



Song: I Know a Chicken- Laurie Berkner with shaker eggs


Flannel Board: Where is the Chick?

So I  borrowed this idea from Read It Again. I made 10 eggs (only 8 fit on the flannel board)  of all different patterns from scrapbook paper, laminated them. and put felt on the back. Then I made different Ellison shapes to put underneath: snowflake, star, butterfly, heart, boat, dinosaur, flower, apple, fish rabbit and chick. We flipped the eggs until we found the chick. They loved it!







Book: Mama Hen’s Big Day by Jill Latter



Activity: Non-traditional egg hunt. I took large plastic Easter eggs and put two of the same letter on each egg- one on top and one on the bottom. Each child got a top and had to go look for the bottom with the matching letter in the Children’s Room. The teen volunteers hid the bottoms while the story portion of the program was going on.
