Easter Egg Potato Stamping
The Best Easter Egg Potato Stamp Ideas for Kids
What you need for Potato Stamping
Using a sharp knife, cut a potato in half and cut an Easter egg design into the potato flesh on each half. Cut about ½ inch into the potato. I would do the cutting of the potatoes before calling the kids over for the craft because this does take a few minutes. I made the mistake of having Bells sit and wait for me at the table, and it took about 5 minutes for me to cut out a few designs. Even though she was excited and patient next time, I will do the cutting first.
Pour your paints out onto a tray or paper plate and brush different colors onto the designs you cut on the potato.
These Potato Stamp Designs Are A Perfect Easter Craft
Stamp the potatoes onto paper to make fun Easter Egg pictures. Wipe off the potato and use different color paint to make a variety of eggs.
Optional: Glue some Easter grass towards the bottom of the egg to give it a fun pop!
