Bow-Tied Easter Egg with Chicks and Flowers

A large Easter egg stands upright with a big bow tied around its base, the two ribbon tails hanging down below. The egg is split into horizontal bands of pattern. At the top are a ribbon-like stripe and a row of pointed petal shapes. Below that is a line of small circles, then a band with three baby chicks and two cracked eggshell halves placed in between them. The next band holds a row of five-petal flowers with round centers, and near the bottom a twisting vine of leaves wraps around the egg. Try coloring each band in its own color family, such as yellow chicks against soft blue shells, so the pattern stays easy to read. It also works well for talking with younger kids about how chicks hatch from eggs. This printable page has a mix of big and small spaces, so it suits crayons and fine markers alike.
