About this deal
The shape of the potato is the perfect base for creating your own Easter Egg design – but you will need to take control of any sharp knives during the carving process! Gripping a pencil or pen strengthens the muscles in the hand and fingers, while forming the letters improves control over those muscles and creates a stronger bond between the brain and the hands. Handwriting is still a core part of learning and development all over the world, even as the computer keyboard becomes widely used in the world of work.

Once you have pencilled in your design fill it in with colour; Junior Brushes are ideal for covering large areas, but you may need a smaller brush for tiny details. It’s best to add a layer or two of your base colour until the paint layer on the egg is opaque; this will help your design stand out. The sheets are a great accompaniment to our lovely Easter activity resources, and our Easter cutting skills sheet!Keep the container for your eggs as they can be used for mixing colours and also keep your egg stable when painting. Using your fingers to print out designs is a quick and easy way to build up a bright and cheery Easter image, and you can let your imagination run wild with designs! Creating fingerprint artwork is a great way to get your kids ‘hands on’ in the creative process; there’s nothing they’ll enjoy better than getting their fingers in all that colourful paint! We used this technique on an Easter Egg template cut from card, but there’s nothing to stop you using it with other stencils or shapes. These Easter pencil control sheets are a fantastic way for your children to develop their fine motor skills and work on letter formation.
