If you’re looking for a fun, nature based activity for the kids this Easter, keep it simple but creative with this cute Nature Egg Craft! I’m ALWAYS on the lookout for something that is easy to make work for all ages, and this open ended craft ended up being perfect!
Depending on where you live, you may be a bit limited with what is available to use – just remember that nature is also indoors! We ended up using some houseplant leaves, others used strawberry tops or other indoor nature items since our Easters tend to happen with snow still on the ground. =P
