Easter Craft Day

I have been in awe over the darling Easter crafts and activities I have been seeing at different blogs! In general, I feel like I am not terribly crafty or creative, but I do enjoy making things. I was feeling sad because I hadn't made anything for Easter this year (except the names of Jesus Easter garland), so I was excited when my mom suggested we have a craft morning today! One of the best parts was that the crafts we chose required very few supplies, making them very frugal!

With a 17-month-old, we had to take turns crafting and playing with the little one, but here is what we made today!


My little girl and I watercolor painted this egg. We didn't put a cross in it, but I love the idea here at Totally Tots. This is the first time we painted together, and I think she enjoyed it!





While we painted, my mom worked on this sock bunny. I cut the idea out of a past issue of Good Housekeeping, but I found a similar tutorial here.


I sewed this little bunny using the pattern and directions at Twig and Thistle. It's not perfect, but I really like it!






I also love this idea for making Resurrection Rolls. What a clever teaching tool for little ones (and grown-ups) plus they look really yummy!

We are also hoping to decorate eggs with our little girl for the first time this year.

Very cute idea with the egss. A craft day is a marvelous idea for an Easter holiday activity. Sounds like a NEW tradition.

A fun visit, thanks for sharing.
