Easter is a perfect time for creative creation! Crafting with your kids not only makes the Easter celebration extra cozy, it also provides a fun break from screens and a chance to let your imagination run wild.

Here we have collected 5 easy Easter crafts where children can paint, draw and create their own decorations. Perfect for a fun craft time where the whole family can join in!

1. Paint your own Easter eggs with marker pens

Painting Easter eggs is a classic tradition, but instead of using messy paints, try decorating the eggs with Flippy Pens . Markers make it easier to create detailed patterns and fun shapes!

Here's how:

• Boil or poach eggs and let them cool completely.
• Use felt-tip pens to draw patterns, faces or colorful lines.
• Try different techniques, shading and mixing colors to get a cool effect!

Extra tip: Want a (literally) shiny finish? Brush on a thin layer of clear coat once the paint has dried.

2. Create cute Easter cards with colored pencils

A personalized Easter card is a nice greeting for family and friends! Let the children draw their own cards and write little messages.
