Easter egg basket craft and maths booklet for Reception and Year 1 (EYFS-KS1, ages 4-6): a 15-page booklet where children make a paper basket and use ten Easter eggs to count, match numbers, play a memory game and finish patterns. Early number skills and cutting practice in one cheerful spring activity.

Children colour, cut and glue a flat paper basket pocket, then colour and cut out ten decorated eggs to count and play with. Pages invite them to match groups of eggs to the numerals 1 to 5, practise counting to 10 with dots and ten frames, play a number memory game with cut-out egg cards and continue Easter egg patterns.
