Whether your child loves the excitement of an egg hunt, the creativity of decorating eggs, or the warmth of family gatherings, this collection of Easter poems for kids captures the magic of the holiday in playful, engaging verses that rhyme.

Beyond celebrating the season, poetry is a fantastic way to encourage early literacy skills in young children. Rhyming poems help kids recognize sound patterns, improve word recognition, and build phonological awareness, which are important skills for learning to read. Poetry brings words to life, helping children develop a love for language while having fun with the rhythm and flow of words.

These delightful Easter-themed poems are easy for kids to enjoy, whether they’re listening to a sweet bedtime rhyme, a lively poem before an egg hunt, or as a joyful way to celebrate Easter through words. From silly verses about bouncing bunnies to heartwarming poems about Easter traditions, there’s something for everyone. These poems are perfect for reading together as a family, writing in Easter cards, or even using as part of an Easter-themed storytime.

Poems About the Easter Bunny

Bunny Ears and Noses

Bunny ears and

noses wiggle,

Fuzzy tails that

make me giggle!

Hopping here

and hopping there,

Easter fun is

everywhere!

Easter Bunny’s Hop

The Easter Bunny hops so high,

Spreading joy as he goes by.

With baskets full of treats so sweet,

He leaves surprises at your feet!

A cute and silly Easter bunny dressed in blue pjs stretching and getting out of bed.

The Silly Easter Bunny

The Easter Bunny

came to town,

Wearing slippers

and a frown.

“I lost my eggs!” he cried,

“Oh dear!”

“They were just right

over here!”

He checked his pockets,

checked his hat,

Even asked a sleepy cat.

He searched the yard,

behind a chair,

Under the table—

not found there!

He peeked inside

a big bird’s nest,

Then checked his

fluffy bunny vest.

He spun around,

then scratched his head,

And saw his eggs—

beneath his bed!

He laughed so hard

he hopped away,

Hiding eggs

throughout the day.

So if you find one,

pink or blue,

The silly bunny

left it for you!

Poems About Other Easter Animals

Easter Daffodils

Golden yellow, tall and bright,

Daffodils bring such delight!

Waving gently in the air,

Springtime beauty everywhere!

Easter Chicks

Tiny chicks so

soft and bright,

Peeping, chirping

with delight.

Fluffy yellow,

small and sweet,

Dancing round

on tiny feet.

Easter Ducklings

Hopping through the grass so high,

Flapping wings but cannot fly.

Tiny ducklings and their fur so fluffy,

Makes look so cute and puffy!

Easter Lambs

Little lambs go leap, leap, leap,

Bouncing high and kicking feet!

Through the meadow, soft and bright,

Playing in the morning light.

The Animal Easter Parade

The lambs lined up

to lead the way,

But tripped on eggs—

oh, what a day!

The baby chicks all

flapped and spun,

Trying to march but

just had fun!

The ducklings quacked,

“Let’s waddle fast!”

But slipped and tumbled

in a splash!

With giggles, hops,

and feathers bright,

Their Easter parade was

a silly sight!

Poems About Easter Egg Hunts

The Great Egg Hunt

Look around,

search high and low,

Behind the bush

or down below!

Pink and blue

and yellow too,

Easter eggs–

hidden for you!

A Rainbow of Eggs

Red and yellow, green and blue,

Purple, pink, and orange too!

Easter eggs in every hue,

Waiting to be found by you!

Easter Eggs

Hiding eggs in secret spots,

Pink and blue and polka dots.

Easter eggs are everywhere

and Easter joy is in the air!

Poems About Easter Treats

The Candy Surprise

Jellybeans in colors bright,

Marshmallows in chocolate —

what a sight!

Inside my basket, oh so sweet,

A pile of treats for me to eat!

Chocolate Bunny Delight

Chocolate bunnies,

big and small,

Ears are first—I’ll eat them all!

Crunchy, creamy, melt so fast,

Easter treats–they never last!

A Basket Full of Fun

A basket full of

colors bright,

Eggs and candy—

what a sight!

Chocolate bunnies,

marshmallows too,

Easter fun is here for you!

Easter Egg Decorating Fun

Gather eggs,

so smooth and white,

Time to make them

bold and bright!

Dip them in the

colors now

Every rainbow shade–

oh wow!

Yellow, pink, and

purple too,

Stripes and dots

in red and blue.

Colored dyes

and decoration

That will get

some admiration.

Line them up and

let them dry,

Such a pretty sight—

oh my!

Easter eggs for all

to see,

Bringing joy to you

and me!
