INSIDE: Easter egg colour sort is a fun and super easy twist on our classic Easter eggs and Tubes Activity. Build and sort then knock them down! Fun for toddlers and preschoolers!
We have done a few different STEM challenges like this one over the years during different seasons. Check out of other fun version here: Easter, Christmas, Halloween!
How to Set Up Easter Egg Colour Sort
Grab your cardboard tubes likes toilet paper and paper towel rolls. Also your dot stickers and Easter eggs. Attached dot stickers in the same colours as your Easter eggs to the cardboard tubes.
Next, place your Easter eggs in a basket and the tubes beside them.
Invite your little one to stand the cardboard tubes upright and then to balance the correct Easter eggs on top. They can do this with their hands at first and then try doing it with a pair of tongs for a challenge for preschoolers especially.
The best part of this activity is then knocking them over and starting all over again!
