Low Prep Easter Art Activity for Kids

What's a low prep Easter art activity you can do with kids?

You need to try this foil Easter Egg art activity! It's super simple to set up and fun to repeat again and again with kids!

I've done this activity with toddlers, preschoolers, elementary schoolers, and adults! When I taught my daughter's 2nd grade class how to do this art activity, the kids thought it was the coolest and didn't want to be done! They loved repeating this process again and again and seeing the different results.

Directions

Prep-Ahead: Cut paper into small egg shapes.
Color on the foil with washable markers.

Using a spray bottle, spritz the design on the paper with a little bit of water. Avoid over-saturating the design.
Press the paper onto the wet foil marker design.
Pull off the paper and reveal your masterpiece!
Wipe off the excess water with a paper towel.

Repeat this activity by drawing a new design onto the dry foil.

I promise that you'll probably have a tough time only making one of these! I always do! These foil Easter art prints are addicting. Each one turns out different and beautiful.
