Make your own threading card for an extra fun Easter project. Young kids will enjoy decorating their own egg picture. Talk about colors and shapes as they color their Easter egg. Older children can practice their cutting, hole punching and lacing skills – even try adding extra embellishments like glitter or other cut out paper shapes. If you print out this project on a thicker cardstock these threading cards can easily be used over and over again.
You Need:
- Project print out
- Paper
cardstock or thicker paper works best - Scissors
- Tape
- Yarn – approx 1.5 – 2 feet long
allow for a little extra for little hands to mange easier - Crayons, markers or other coloring supply
1. Print out the project sheet and color as desired
2. Cut out egg shape – allow your child to cut if they are familiar with scissors
3. Punch holes along the edge of the egg where the small circle/dots are
4. Wrap one of the yarn with tape to allow easier threading
5. Have fun threading!
