I hope everyone had a fabulous Easter. The last two weeks I have tried to squeeze in as many egg, bunny and chick activities that I could. Many of the activities we did came from awesome teacher blogs. Here's some of what we've been up to:
Chick and Duckling Venn- idea from
Chalk Talk

Easter Bunny Application- I changed this around a little bit after seeing Cara Carroll's Elf Application at the
First Grade Parade. The cute bunny pattern came from
First Grade...a la..Carte. I love how these turned out. After every child turned in their application, we voted to see who would make the best Easter Bunny.

Duck Rabbit- I watched "Duck Rabbit" on Tumble Books then had my kids make these super cute ducks that turn into rabbits. They loved these.

The label says
"My little, yellow duck
is really very funn.
For when I turn him over
It becomes an Easter bunny.
