Easter Egg Stamp Painting for Kids

Easter is almost here and I am looking for different ways to build up the excitement. (That don’t include chocolate). I really adore plastic Easter Eggs for this purpose, because they are more versatile than you would initially think. Today we tried some process art with them and I loved the unexpected ways that my kids used them to create. Have a look at how we did Easter Egg Stamp Painting.

How to Make an Easter Egg Stamp Painting

I’ve found that the best way for my kids to do painting, is to stick some butchers paper to our little play table. Which is perfect for a few reasons:

The paper doesn’t move
- which means no stealing of siblings paper and no fights
- It doesn’t fly off the table on a windy day
I’m not worried about paint getting all over the table

Setting up this activity is so easy. Place a few colors of paint on a plate, cover the plate in foil first for easy cleanup. Then put your plastic Easter Eggs in the paint. Your kids will stamp, or brush the paint onto the paper using the eggs. Or, as my little girl did, decide to paint the actual eggs with some fingerpainting instead.

This was a really fun activity that didn’t turn out the way I had envisioned. My little girl painting the eggs instead of the paper was a wonderful twist. I love watching their little minds come up with possibilities all on their own.
