6 Fun School Holiday Activities Using Chalk Paint Pens

Paint pens probably weren’t the first thing that came to mind when you started wondering what you were going to do with the children in the school break.

There are so many options too, and unfortunately a lot of them cost a lot of money. Here’s how we can help. We’ve collated some fun and inexpensive activities you can do with your children over the holidays using just some chalk marker paint pens.

Don’t worry, they’re non-toxic, chalk based markers that can be washed away with a little hot water and a cloth!

Chalk Marker Paint Pens – 6 Activities

1) Create cute Easter eggs

Chalk markers can be used on any non-porous surface so why not try them on an egg? You can create wonderful little eggs by drawing faces, hair styles, colourful patterns, bunny rabbits and anything else you can think of!

Just remember to hard boil the eggs before hand so they don’t break and give them time to cool.

2) Design floor fun

The markers work on hard floor surfaces, so why limit yourself to chalkboards? Drawing on the floor with a chalk marker is a great way to get your children engaged in an unusual way of making art.
Why not play hopscotch? It’s a classic children’s game that can keep them entertained for hours.

Just remember to do it outside so you can wash your designs away when you’re done!

3) Window Art

Drawing on the windows is probably something your children have never done before and is likely to be an unusual experience for you too!

Create wonderful Easter messages on the front windows of your home, though you might want to practise on the back windows first! A ‘Happy Easter’ message surrounded with eggs and religious symbols might be a great way to teach your children the origins of this religious holiday or just to have a great time being creative.

4) Bunny Selfie Mirror

This is a great one for your Facebook page. Draw the outline of a bunny rabbit face on a mirror and then position yourself in front of it, transforming you and your children into Easter bunnies!

It’s not limited to just a bunny either, you can draw silly glasses and egg shaped earrings to get even more out of your mirror.

5) Chalkboard Games

If you have a chalkboard or two then playing simple games is a must. Noughts and crosses, for example, is an easy five minute game to keep the children entertained.

You can create your own snakes and ladders board or battleships, the possibilities are almost endless.

6) Learning Made Fun

Spelling and mathematics can be done using chalk paint markers. Windows, floors and chalkboards make the ideal surface to solve simple maths puzzles and play the popular word game hangman.

You’d be surprised at just how fun a change of surface to write on makes these games.
