Easter Bunny Mask

What You Need:

• 1 paper plate
• 3 paper straws, cut in half
• colour markers
• string or ribbon
• scissors

Instructions:

Step 1: Draw a template of the rabbit nose onto a paper plate (see below) and carefully cut away the bottom half of the plate. 

Step 2: Cut the rim of the plate in half and colour them in (see below). These are your bunny ears. 

Step 3: Glue the ears to the top of the plate, attach the whiskers to the nose (we used tape) and pierce two holes on each side of the plate and thread ribbon through them to attach to your head.

An Egg-cellent Easter Egg Hunt

Keep your kids entertained this Easter by rustling up some homemade treats and hiding them around your house to create the ultimate springtime Easter egg hunt. We’ve even created a couple of sign posts to keep everyone on the right track!

We’ve created a ten-step Easter trail for your kids to follow, leading them to the Easter treasure.  Write each clue to the back of our Easter Egg Hunt sign posts or write them out onto small pieces of coloured paper. Weather dependant, you can throw a couple of your own clues into the mix to get the kids running about outside. If, however, it’s drizzly or you don’t have access to a garden, simply use our clues to create the perfect indoor Easter trail.

Planning your Easter Egg Hunt:

1. Print out your Easter Egg Hunt signs here 
2. Cut them out with a pair of scissors.
3. With a little bit of glue or sellotape, attach a lollipop stick/ tooth pick to the back of each Easter Egg Hunt signs.
4. Write the clues onto the backs of the signs or onto coloured pieces of paper.
5. Lay out your clues and treats (TIP: change the clues to make them more personal).

Clue 1: I’m cosy and warm and help you sleep at night

Clue 2: Where do you brush your teeth
