Simple Chick Craft


I found these cute little chicks on kiddio . They are so cute! We made these today and they are currently in little hands flying all around the house.

We used a cup and traced circles onto card stock and folded the circles in half. Then we made little beaks and the kids colored the bodies with crayons and colored pencils. We glued on some googley eyes and taped a couple of feathers underneath the body.

Supplies needed:
Cardstock
feathers
crayons/markers/colored pencils
googley eyes
tape
glue

Paper Plate Easter Bunnies



Easter is coming soon!! We made some Easter bunnies out of paper plates and the ears were made out of card stock. We also used buttons and googley eyes, pom poms and a black marker. They are too cute!!

Bunny Basket




Instead of taking our nice Easter baskets outside in the wet grass on Easter for the Easter Egg Hunt, we made these. It is really nice that there is a handle and the kids can easily carry them around.

We took an empty gallon milk jug, cut off the top and added eyes, nose, and ears and then we drew whishers and a mouth on the face with a permanent marker.

supplies needed:
gallon milk jug
colored paper/cardstock
felt
permanent marker
glue
stapler
Easter grass

Easter Eggs




We decorated foam shaped Easter eggs today with sequins, buttons, and pom poms. I especially like the 70s Disco Egg my son made :)

Jelly Bean Bracelets


I saw these on a blog some where and I though that I had saved the site in order to give them credit for the idea, but I can't seem to find it any where. I apologize.

I made these for the kids. They involed a needle and it wasn't very easy to string them on the thread. The kids LOVED them! They have always been big fans of edible bracelets.

Supplies Needed:
Jelly Beans
Needle
Thread

Supplies Needed:
yellow pom poms
googley eyes

Egg Sun Catcher




I have been told many times by my son in the last few weeks that Valentine's Day is over and that we should take our hearts down that we made. I love them so much that I just didn't want to take them down yet. Today we made some eggs the same way we made the hearts from our previous post.

They look so cute on our sliding glass door.

Supplies needed:
card stock
contact paper
tissue paper
hole punch
cording or yarn
