Resurrection Eggs for Toddlers

April 15, 2014 By meredith 18 Comments

I've been consistently doing preschool activities with my 2 1/2 year old for about a month now.  We've started easy, with a new letter of the alphabet each week, counting, shapes, colors...that sort of thing.  With Easter approaching this Sunday though, I was eager to find an activity for him to help his little mind begin to understand the importance of the day.  I was thrilled to find a few ideas … [Read more...]
