This project is rated very easy, if all items are precut
for kids to just glue on.
Material: Foam Craft Sheets (gray - one sheet should make about 6 pairs of
ears)
Set of Wiggle Eyes
2 small gray pompoms
1 small pink pompom
2 pink pipe cleaners
Pink Felt
Styrofoam cup
Easter paper grass
plastic baggies
permanent marker
Directions:
Prior to crafting, precut bunny ears both outside and inside to make a
set of two per child. Take a small plastic baggy and write each child's
name on it in permanent marker. In each bag put the pieces to make
one small cup, then place the baggy inside the cup for easy
distribution. Precut the ears, the pipe cleaners in half and put
two holes in the front of the cup about ½ of inch apart where you want
the whiskers to be.
Assemble
by gluing wiggle eyes on first. Then take cut pipe cleaners, slide
in one hole and out the other hole in the foam cup. Make one twist
with each side of the pipe cleaners to secure them. Glue on gray
cheeks and pink nose. Let dry for 10 minutes. Next glue on
ears, let dry. Once glued items have dried, add Easter grass and
treats.
