Easter is almost here, and we have a fun and simple holiday craft for the kids! Not only is it a fun idea, but all of the supplies and assistance you need will be available at the Riverfront this Friday morning (4/18) from 10 a.m. to noon. Nicole Dittus, who has a studio at Hot Shops Art Center, will be at Lewis and Clark Landing, near the Luminarium, to assist you.
All of the supplies are recycled, including empty egg cartons and cardboard. Dittus will show you how to make one of the Easter bunnies in the video and in person at the park, but here are some basic steps…
Cut out one of the egg holders from the egg carton to serve as your bunny’s face. Cut out the background and ears for your bunny from cardboard. The ears can be glued to the background, followed by the bunny’s egg carton face. Any scraps created while cutting the shapes can be used to add bows, teeth, or hair.
After assembling the bunny faces, children can use markers and crayons to decorate and color their bunnies and backgrounds.
