Foam Easter Wreath

 This morning the boys and I made an easy foam Easter Wreath.

Materials:
Two packages of foam Easter egg stickers found at Walmart for .97!
A paper plate
Foam letter stickers
A hole punch and ribbon



 I cut the center out of the paper plate, dumped out the stickers and let the boys have fun! I encouraged them to cover all the white on the plate.

 I love to watch them work on their fine motor skills by peeling the back of the stickers off. Once JP said, "This is awesome Mommy!" I love it when they love an easy, yet purposeful craft!

I also had JP help me with the sounds of the words "Happy Easter" and they both helped put the letters on the wreath.

 I have to say I am enjoying our new colorful, Easter wreath on the front door!
I consider this activity thrifty, frugal, fun and educational! What a win-win for us all!
