Egg-cellent Easter Activities | Purple Mash by 2Simple

We’ve put together a cracking set of Easter-themed resources for your pupils to use at this egg-cellent time of year. There’s so much fun packed into this collection of activities it’s bound to bring as much joy as opening an Easter egg.

Writing Projects

Encourage children to develop their writing skills using our Easter-themed writing activities:

Digital storybooks: Using the 2Create a Story Easter Story Starter, children can write their own Easter stories.
Letter writing: After watching the short video within the activity, children can write a letter to a friend explaining the Easter story.
Newspaper reports: Older children can write a Newspaper Report about the Crucifixion, showcasing their understanding of the Easter story.
Compare and Contrast: Watch Oakley and Brody's Easter celebration video and compare it to how they celebrate Easter using this writing template.

Games and quizzes

Make learning fun with our selection of Easter games:

The Easter Bunny game sees children fly the bunny’s plane in a race against time to catch all the falling eggs before they hit the ground.

Then there are the Easter egg hunts. The first is a 3D game created using 2DIY3D in which players must collect all the eggs in the maze while avoiding the baddies lurking around every corner. Once they complete the first level they can have a go at extending the game by adding their own level. For younger learners of code, there’s a 2Go egg hunt. Here, children have to accurately program their bunny to collect all the eggs on the screen using logo commands. It’s a great way to practise basic command programming at this time of year.

Older children might want to watch our video and put the Stations of the Cross in order.

Creative Arts and Crafts

For something without eggs or bunnies there’s a Spring flowers animation. Can children create their own animation from the template provided?

And of course, there’s the obligatory Easter Bunny Mashcam to give children the chance to be the Easter Bunny themselves. But who will they give their eggs to? There’s only one way to find out. Try the Mashcam!
