KidZone: Easter Creative Writing Prompts
Introduction:
These creative writing prompts are a fun Easter activity. I like to introduce them on April 10th which is "National Encourage a Young Writer Day" and usually falls sometime near Easter each year.
Each worksheet provides a different inspiration to help spark a child's creative writing.
