Why should Christmas get all the fun countdown calendars? Make this fun easter countdown craft is a fun way to get ready for Easter with your toddler, preschool, pre-k, kindergarten, first grade, and 2nd graders. The best part is this countdown to easter is super easy to make!
Easter countdown craft
Here’s what you will need for supplies:
- A large felt piece for the back of the calendar (mine was a stiff version of felt, which made it even easier to work with)
- Sheets of felt in various colors
- Felt glue
- Scissors
- Permanent markers
- Hole punch
- String
The felt can be found inexpensively at your local craft store or easily ordered online.
Countdown to easter
First, cut out squares from the felt. My backing board was 12 inches wide, so I decided to make my squares 2 1/2 inches. This left room for 20 squares, perfect for about a 3 week countdown!
If you are doing this craft with younger children, cut the square out beforehand and let them choose what colors they’d like from the pre-cut squares.
Once you get them cut out, arrange them on your backing piece how you’d like.

Then, use the felt glue to attach the squares, leaving an opening at the top.
