1. Easter-themed vocabulary lists are a great way to practice spelling and handwriting. 
2. Word searches and crossword puzzles fire up the brain.

4. Test the strength of egg shells with this bridge-building experiment. 
5. Similarly, test the strength of eggs by seeing what happens when you walk on them. For older kids, make it a lesson on pressure and force.

7. Explore Newton’s 3 laws of motion with an Easter catapult!
