DIY Easter Egg Maraca’s

Today, I have an easy DIY project for you! I used to make these for my students when I taught preschool. They are so much fun and the best part is they can be used any time of the year.

You’ll need to purchase one bag of plastic Easter eggs (any color and size). Then look around your house for small objects to put inside the eggs.

Ideas of what to put into eggs:

-Beans

-Seeds

-Rice

-Popcorn kernels

-Buttons

-Bells

-Coins

-Any small non-pershishable item

After you’ve filled the eggs, make sure to tape the eggs shut. This is very important because if your child gets into the egg, the items inside could be choking hazards.

Once you’ve taped them shut, you’re ready to rock out! You can use the maracas when dancing to music or make your own music! I love that they are easily customizable because you can put little items of what you have around the house.

Have fun!!
