Egg carton matching

I've seen this done many times and it's a lot of fun!

We took an egg carton and I let Little Man paint it. Once it was dry I used paint swatches from a paint store that matched plastic easter eggs that we had around the house, I cut little circles out and glued them into the bottom of each of the egg holes.


Always mixing his colors



I think he enjoyed painting himself better than the carton!


This was the hardest part for me because I can't cut a perfect circle to save my life! And I get frustrated when things don't turn out well... but in the end I finally told myself it was ok!


His finished painting!

Once it is dry you place the matching easter eggs in the right spots and let your little one have at it. Little Man loves playing with this, and even though he doesn't match the colors yet it is a great way to introduce him to colors and matching!
