Kids receive so much candy at Easter, it’s nice to have non-candy Easter egg fillers to round things out. This Easter, skip the sugar rush and create these candy-alternative Easter eggs.
This is a quick and easy Easter DIY. You can even use these as a classroom Easter gift for your child’s classmates. Involve your kids in putting these together for their friends.
Supplies You’ll Need:
Here are the supplies I used, but feel free to add your own creative spin: (shopping links are underlined)
- Easter-shaped clear plastic eggs – I found bunny and chick shaped eggs at the Dollar Tree. Hurry and grab them while they’re still in stock
- Play-Doh (various colors) – I used this set. I used almost a full can per Easter egg.
- Small bunny erasers (to be a hidden surprise inside the Play-Doh) Feel free to use other Easter shapes. I found mine at Dollar Tree.
- Glitter confetti mix – I found mine at Michael’s. Any glitter/confetti/beads will work. The set I used had small gem shaped beads.
- Letter beads to personalize each egg
Instructions:
- Fill the Eggs: Start by filling each plastic egg with a generous scoop of colorful Play-Doh.
- Tuck the surprise bunny eraser in the center of the dough.
- Sprinkle the glitter confetti mix on the top.
- Spell out the recipients name using letter beads. Press them into the dough enough so they don’t move out of place
This candy alternative Easter egg filler idea is fun to put together. Kids will be so excited to play with the dough and find the bunny surprise inside.
