Easter Eggs, ages 7-12

We looked at some books on Ukrainian eggs and talked about the divisions and designs used.
The students then chose their own patterns and colors and painted these lovely paintings to welcome spring.

Bunnies and Chicks, ages 7-9

I like to offer papercraft projects because they are colorful, a different way for the students to express themselves and they are fun.  Just look at all the ideas below! And most added decorated eggs shapes hanging from the bottom to turn them into mobiles.

I set up a still life with eggs and buckets on easter grass and asked the students to create a painting using oil pastels. They did a few thumbnails and chose the one that worked best for them. We also talked about how if the light is coming from the top, then the round eggs would have a shadow underneath.
