Easter Egg Potato Stamping Craft for Kids
Got any potatoes going bad? We did so we thought we’d try to make Easter egg potato stamps! It actually turned out great and could be used to make homemade Easter cards, etc.
Try different designs!
You will need a potato, a knife, paint, and a piece of paper.
Obviously an adult needs to cut the potato with the knife! :) I saw this craft somewhere else and they had cute squiggly and wavy lines…did not happen. Lol! Straight lines were the easiest and they still turned out cute.
…then we wanted to try zig-zags and that worked good too! Just slice lines on both sides and angle the knife to cut that piece off.
Dip the potato in the paint and stamp really hard against a piece of paper!
Zig Zag Easter Eggs
I got talked into trying to make zig zag designs and it wasn’t THAT bad I guess!
For this one just have a couple tiny paintbrushes for kids to paint each zig zag a different color.
How cute for Easter!
Check out how we made a bunny and a chick too! :)

My potatoes kind of shriveled up when I cut them the day before so i’d say the morning of :)
Could I cut the potatoes the day before or would it be best to do it when I start the craft
Love this! Going to try it with my son tomorrow! :)
Thanks very much! :)
