Easter Artwork for Kids and Adults
Guided projects like the Easter art ideas found above are fun and can lead to individual forms of expression. However, children also need ample time to create open-ended process art.
It’s important to allow downtime for the kids to explore where boredom can lead them. It often leads my daughter into our art and craft room to create and explore her artistic process.
One form of open-ended process art that your child may have enjoyed as a toddler is fingerpainting. You can also give the wet-on-wet watercolor painting technique a try.
And, if you have ever wondered how Easter Eggs, The Easter Bunny, and Easter Baskets came to be associated with Easter, we have uncovered a few interesting ideas that you can learn about in Easter Traditions.
