Those plastic Easter eggs are great for double duty with this fun Easter craft. Kids can experiment with making music and can try to identify what’s inside!

Materials:

• Plastic eggs
• Your choice of rice, beans, salt, oatmeal or pennies.
• Scotch tape
• Permanent markers, stickers or other decorations

Instructions:

• Open the plastic egg and add a tablespoon or more of of your chosen materials to the bigger part of the egg.  If your egg has holes, be sure to tape over those from the inside.
• Close the egg and tape around the seam.
• Decorate the egg with markers, stickers or other decorations.
• Now you are ready to make some noise!
