Instructions
What to do
1. Invite the children to glue one large plastic egg securely to the bottom of a paper cup.
2. Make sure that the egg dries securely and stays in place. Avoid using drinking cups that have
wax on the outside or the eggs most likely will not adhere to the cups.
3. With the eggs glued on the cups, allow children to add glitter and sequins freely onto their
eggs, using a paintbrush to paint on the glue. Add the glitter onto the eggs first, followed by
sequins. These can be put on individually using toothpicks to add dots of glue onto the back of
sequins.
4. Allow the eggs to dry completely. This may take some time and patience!
