Eggs - Full of Sound

Sarah came home with this neat activity that she did at school.  I thought that it would be a fun activity for Jillian and Matthew too!

You need 12 plastic eggs and 12 small items to fill both the eggs and the egg carton.


We used {clockwise from top left}: pasta, toothpicks, dice, cherrios, marbles, string, marshmallows, pennies, cotton balls, paper clips, rice and beans.


Then shake, shake, shake and listen carefully!  Try to match the sounds with the corresponding item in the egg carton.  After you have matched all 12 eggs open them up and see how well you have listened and identified the sounds!


This was a great activity that really held the kids attention, and it was so fun to see how excited they were for each other when they matched correctly!

Have Fun!
