This is a widespread activity now, so it is not strange that we joined as well. We made our Easter eggs traditional way as it is done in my family. Kids liked the process and we managed not to break any of them. If you check our posts from the middle of March you will both find our way to play Easter egg hunt (14. March) in one, and in the other post how we made a bowl for it with Papier-mâché, an easy way (16. March).

This is my very special day! Today we made a beautiful collection of letters and we hardly wait for them to be posted!!!

Everything started with a very simple activity that could have lasted for not more than 45 minutes - painting with shaving foam. But then spontaneously it turned into 13!!!!!! gorgeous letters for kids' loved ones.

Kids made greeting cards, wrote something on each card and devoted it to somebody they love. They made envelopes, postmarks and stamped it, pressing button stump in different colors wax.
Little people can do amazing things!!!!!
