Game: Match the Sounds

This "Match the Sound" game helps children listen carefully and pick out differences in the sounds.  The children in my classes have always enjoyed playing it.  It can get messy if they open the eggs quickly.  So be prepared!












Start with a bag of empty Easter eggs.




Gather different objects to put inside the eggs. Ideas: pennies, buttons, beads, beans, rice, cut-up straws, safety pins, barrets and cut-up toothpics. 

Caution:  be careful using small objects with little children!

Fill at least 2 eggs with the same objects.

The Game: Have the children take turns shaking the eggs and finding two that sound the same. Carefully open the eggs to see if they guessed correctly!

Have fun!

    Children would like this any time, not just in the spring. Many K through 2 classes teach sound, and children get so excited about things like this. Don't put them away after Easter and the siblings who wait for your music students can entertain themselves with this fun activity. Brilliant! Carolyn

    Love this idea! & such a great way to reuse the eggs after Easter. My son loves to play with them throughout the year, but they end up broken and in pieces.. this will be wonderful to try out!

    This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I love seeing websites that understand the value of providing a quality resource for free. It is the old what goes around comes around routine. wooden chess sets

    Great job for publishing such a beneficial web site. Your web log isn’t only useful but it is additionally really creative too. There tend to be not many people who can certainly write not so simple posts that artistically. Continue the nice writing best gaming mice (via ESO FAQ's)
