This is another fun, Easter themed craft activity to help your child remember the names of shapes. You will need to make the shapes from paper or card to create an Easter bunny. You can draw them, colour them in, cut them out and then place and stick them in the correct places to make a bunny rabbit.
Talk to your child about the shapes they need to make the rabbit. You will need:
One medium circle for the head
One large circle for the body
Two small circles for the eyes
One smaller circle for the nose
Two large ovals for the ears
Two smaller ovals for inside the ears
One small square for the teeth
Four thin rectangles for the whiskers
Place the shapes in the correct positions and when your child is happy with their finished bunny, stick them on.
When the shape bunny is complete ask your child questions such as:
Which shape did you use for the teeth?
Which shape did you use for the ears?
Which is the biggest shape?
Which is the smallest shape?
Can you see a square?
Where is the smallest oval?
How many rectangles can you see?
Have fun with the activity and let us know how you got on by sending us your pictures to:
