We happen to love the book The Easter Egg by Jan Brett! It is a great book about Easter eggs. I love all the fun colorful Easter eggs in the book!

How to make the Easter Egg Wreath: Oil Pastels

These Easter Egg Wreaths are super simple and easy to make. There are just a few steps and some can be adapted for different ages!

After you make this wreath try this crayon shaving Easter Eggs.

Step 1: Watercolor Paint the Paper Plate

You are going to start with watercolor painting the paper plate. You can use all the green colors to paint the plate. I like to use watercolor paints because they dry really fast.

If you want something different you can use a dot markers.

Step 2: Color the Paper

Then you are going to color the paper. You need to make sure they know the direction the punch is. So they can see how much to color the paper.

I give them a copy of the egg to punched out so that they can see it easily.

Color the paper any way you want with oil pastels. This is where you can be as creative as you want. You can blend colors, do strips and just be creative in silly and fun ways. There is no wrong way to color the egg.

If you want to skip the coloring part you can just have them punch out Easter themed Scrapbook paper.

Step 3: Punch out the Eggs

You punch out the eggs. You can do them as you color the paper or a bunch at a time. This is super easy to do. Plus it is fun to see the eggs after they are punched out.

After the punch, you can look at your fun Easter egg!

Step 4: Glue on the Wreath

After you have all our Easer Eggs are made you glue them on the paper plate. You can have as much fun as you want to glue the eggs around the wreath.
