Frequently Asked Questions
What ages are these Easter crafts suitable for?
Most of these ideas suit a wide range of ages. Simpler projects like the paper plate chick, fingerprint bunnies and bunny mask work well for toddlers and preschoolers with a little help, while the paper strip egg art, garland and daffodil crafts give older kids more scope to work independently.
Do I need special craft supplies?
No — most of these crafts use things you probably already have at home, such as paper plates, toilet roll tubes, tissue paper, crayons, egg cartons and balloons. A few basics like scissors, glue and coloured paper will cover almost everything on this list.
Can these crafts be used for an Easter party or classroom activity?
Yes, many of them work well in a group setting. The egg carton chicks, mini piñatas and bunny masks are especially popular for parties, playdates or classroom Easter activities since children can make their own to take home.
How long do these crafts take to make?
Most can be finished in under half an hour, making them ideal for a rainy afternoon or a quick activity between Easter egg hunts. A few, like the bunny ears or the chick piñata, take a little more time and patience.
