These plastic Easter eggs are always a fascination for my baby and toddler when I bring them out. The older kids are doing all sorts of learning activities with them and here she is wanting to join in but is way too young to. I came up with a little activity for her to do with these eggs that is so simple I was even wondering if I should take pictures to show it! ha!
Baby & Toddler Easter Eggs Activity Materials
- One large tray for real eggs (empty)
- A handful of various color plastic eggs closed
Nestle the eggs into the egg tray and present to your older baby / toddler to inspect. They will love removing them and rearranging them in the tray.

If your child is more towards the older toddler age / preschooler area this idea is adaptable to them too!
Do some color sorting! Either in rows or in batches. If your eggs also happen to be rainbow colored make a rainbow too! 😉
I also found a picture from last year where we also did this activity!

Hi, as a childminder I am always looking for activity ideas. I love your egg basket sorting activity! It’s so simple but looks like it will keep them focused. Please could you email any other ideas you have.
Thank you
