Egg Lacing Card

Looking for a quick, easy activity that ALSO works on fine motor skills? Here it is! 

Materials: paper plate (the sturdier the better), writing utensil, scissors, hole punch, yarn/string, tape 

  • On the back of the paper plate draw the shape of an egg

  • Cut out the egg on the plate 

  • Punch holes on the plate around the outside of the egg cut out

  • Cut a piece of yarn/string (approximately 8 ft. pictured)
  • Tie a large knot (big enough that it will not slip through the hole punched hole) at one end of the yarn/string and wrap a piece of tape around the opposite end to help guide the yarn/string through the holes without fraying 

  • Place the taped side of the yarn/string through one punched hole and begin lacing

  • Undo the yarn/string and repeat as often as you like
  • Enjoy!
