PLEASE NOTE THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS BEFORE UNDERTAKING ANY ACTIVITY WITH
YOUR LITTLE ONES
We urge everyone to employ the same common sense with these activities that they would with any
other activity involving a small child. Specifically:
1. When painting, use tempera paints - Always use white glue.
2. Pasta and other items that have been coloured with rubbing alcohol or food colouring are not edible.
3. Monitor any activities that involve glitter carefully, so glitter doesn't get into eyes.
4. An iron is hot - an ADULT must perform any activity steps that involve ironing.
5. Remember that small objects - even edible ones - can be a choking hazard for small children.
6. Edible items that have been glued or treated are no longer edible.
7. Items such as shaving cream are not edible.
8. Use of scissors requires adult supervision!
THANK YOU

I have found some variation in the way some of the crafts are made, and the
games played, but I have decided to include them all - oh so little time and so
many wonderful things to make!!! Enjoy!
Easter Bunny Handprints
Make a brown or grey handprint without painting the thumb and by keeping 2
and 2 fingers together for the ears. Add pink to the inside of the ears and add
a bunny face and whiskers to the ‘palm’.
Bunny Ears Headband
Cut out a long strip of white, brown or grey card 5cm wide to measure around
head and staple closed so the headband fits snugly. Cut out two long bunny
ears. Either paint pink in the middle or add pink paper. Staple them towards the
front of the band.
Cotton Wool Chick
Dye two cotton wool balls light yellow the day before making this craft and let
dry. Cut one section of an egg box out. Glue the two yellow balls one on top of
the other into the egg box, one for the chick’s body and one for the head. Glue
a tiny orange diamond shaped paper folded in half on for a beak and add two
little googly eyes. See our other Cotton chick craft
Magic Scratch Art Easter Eggs
Cut out Easter Egg Shapes. Colour them in with colourful pencil crayons in no
particular pattern but make sure every bit of the paper or card is coloured.
Then colour in the entire egg with thick black wax crayon. Using an instrument
such as a coin, scratch off the black crayon in patterns across the egg to
reveal the wonderful colours underneath!
Egg Box Easter Basket
Cut an egg box so that it contains four egg cups. Make small holes on 2
opposite sides of each basket. Twist 2 pipe cleaners together to form a handle.
Push the ends of the handle into holes. Fill basket with cellophane grass.
Decorate handle with ribbons. Add your dyed eggs.
Bunny Basket
Here is a template to print, colour and fold a simple cardboard bunny basket
Fun Pages for Kids
Baking
Make your favourite cookie dough and use bunny and egg shape cookie
cutters. When baked decorate your bunnies and eggs with bright coloured
water icing and silver balls, lOOs & l000s etc.
