Easter poems for kids are great for teaching little ones about what happens at Easter (whether that's chocolate egg-eating or celebrating the resurrection of Jesus). If you’re planning an Easter egg huntfor your children, why not tuck an Easter poem into their basket or a card as a little extra treat? It’ll be a lovely surprise and poems are a great way to improve your child’s reading skills and speech development.
The best type of poetry for kids are ones that are short, snappy and talks about things your child are familiar with. Anything too long and complicated will not only be too difficult for them to read, but will probably see them switch off in interest. Here’s a round up of our favourite Easter poems for kids from Pinterest, to add a little extra cheer to this special spring day.
