Making a Maypole can be overwhelming so here is a simple way to make a "maypole" for your family, homeschool group or preschool using our playsilks and any simple hoop. We have a kit for sale here.

In todays blog post I want to share with you a simple and fun little game to play with your children around Easter. They will love it, especially if they are still little! First we would make little Easter bunnies out of silk together and then we would tell a story using a playsilk as a backdrop for a theater to play out the stories.
