Are you in need of fun Easter crafts for kids to celebrate spring? These adorable felt Easter eggs are the perfect project for kids of all ages!
They are easy to make at home or at school, use common craft supplies and only take about 20 minutes. I love this project for spring because you have so many options on how to decorate the eggs!
No Sew Felt Egg Craft for Spring
Celebrate spring with this easy felt egg craft for kids of all ages. It’s also a fun alternative to dyeing Easter eggs (and overall less messy too).
Preschoolers and kindergartners can practice fine motor skills by helping to glue on supplies. They can also use a cotton swab to dip into the glitter glue and “paint” designs on felt eggs.
Elementary age children can do this craft mostly independently. They can practice their tracing, cutting and gluing skills.
If your kids enjoy creating these, be sure to check out the rest of our craft ideas for kids! There are lots of projects to make all year long.

Tips for Making Felt Easter Eggs
I recommend preparing a variety of supplies ahead of time so children can grab the various craft materials to decorate at one spot or station.
You can use small cups or a painting palette to make this easier and to minimize clean-up.
Use serrated pinking shears to create zig-zag designs with the felt. Grown-ups can prep these ahead of time for young children to decorate with.
You can also cut out felt shapes like triangles and circles to decorate the felt eggs.
When they are finished, turn them into cute Easter decor!
Add a length of twine to the back with scotch tape or use a sewing needle to thread them onto it to create a lovely homemade Easter egg banner.
These also make great homemade gifts! Add them into an Easter basket as a cute and easy DIY Easter present or mail them.
The felt Easter eggs are lightweight and can easily be added into Easter cards for the perfect surprise for your friends and family.
