We have 3 activities for you using Connetix Magnet Tiles: 1) An Easter Egg Hunt Building Challenge: Print the egg cards, pop them into Easter eggs and hide them for a friend to find. Once you find them, build 2 or 3D Easter ideas from the cards. 2) Easter Egg Pin Ball Machine: Use the magnet tiles to set up an obstacle course to move your ball around in. With the point cards, try to see if you can get up to 100! 3) Build the Easter Bunny a Home: With your magnet tiles, build the Easter bunny a dwelling!

Feed the Bunny: Counting and Additions Games. With the provided printables children can feed the Easter bunny while practising their number sense and numeration skills. There are two options- one activity to count the carrots or cabbages (we show you how to make them) and another to add the groups together. The first activity allows children to practise their one to one correspondence skills and the second basic addition, by combining two groups. These hands-on games with clear visuals are great for children in Kindergarten and Grade 1 (and those in preschool looking for a challenge)! The theme ties into both spring and Easter and is easy to set up with a few materials!
