Paper plate kids crafts are very easy and extremely affordable. How to be Super Mom suggests you keep all the left over paper plates from events and holidays until you get the chance to make one of our paper plate crafts.
The Easter bunny is one of the most important symbols of Easter Sunday, maybe not as popular as Santa Claus on Christmas but  kids wait for him to bring them chocolate eggs and candies.
This Easter bunny craft will look nice if hung on the fridge or the bedroom's door.
A cute character that your children will love making with you, all you need is paper plates, glue and a marker. Ready? then get your supplies ready and lets get crafting.

Supplies Needed
  • 2 white paper plates, one slightly bigger than the other
  • 1 pink card board
  • A small quantity of cotton

  • Draw two large bunny ears on the pink card board, cut them out and glue them from the back side of the small paper plate.

Easter Crafts: Paper Chicks Egg Holder

Easter crafts for kids

If you're looking for preschool craft ideas then you will love this one. It is very easy indeed, and children from 4 and up will be able to make it by themselves. The bird at the left was crafted by my 4 year old girl, I didn't help! She just followed the steps I took while making the first bird. I am telling you this to prove to you two important things, the first is that this kids craft is very easy and the second point is showing you that crafting with your kids from an early age, as early as 1 year old will allow them to grow up knowing exactly how to use their hands and manipulate scissors, crayons and what ever might be needed to finish a craft.

Dear super moms, spending quality time with your children crafting will help them learn many things other than the simple obvious matter of how to make the project in hands. Please, take 15 minutes out of your busy day and craft with your child. How to be Super Mom is posting free craft ideas for children which won't need more than few simple and low cost supplies. Craft with them and share their work with us!

Supplies Needed

  • 2 googly eyes
  • Orange A4 paper
  • Yellow A4 paper
  • Transparent glue
  • Scissors
  • Pencil

Directions

  • Cut one 5x15 cm rectangle, and one 5x12 cm rectangle.
  • Form a cylinder with each and glue the borders.
  • Glue the small cylinder on top of the larger one- the bottom cylinder will allow us to insert a decorated Easter egg.
  • On the orange paper, draw 2 large paws, 2 wings, and a diamond shape for the beak.
  • Glue the wings on the inner side of the bottom cylinder.
  • Glue the paws on the bottom of the large cylinder.
  • Fold the diamond in half and glue one half on the middle of the top cylinder allowing the other top to point out as an opened beak.
  • Glue both googly eyes and your chick is ready for your Easter decoration.
This could be a great way to decorate Easter eggs if you are not planning on coloring them. The chicks will make a beautiful Easter table ornament.

Easter Crafts: Easter Bunny Mask



Easter is near, and Easter crafts are fun. Kids would love to prepare the house decoration and you will gain the opportunity to spend an extra quality time with them. Wouldn’t you love that? I adore my daughters, but there is a 4 year difference between them both, so I have to create 2 crafts at a time; one that will suit a one year old and another that will be fun and interesting for a 5 year old. Today we made this fuzzy Easter bunny mask. My 5 year old enjoyed it a lot, and she was able to make more than 90 percent of the work by herself. Just the cutting part wasn’t very easy since the mask template was a little hard, but she punched out the eyes of the Easter bunny mask and she glued the inner pink ears, the cotton, and created the muzzle.
'How to be Super Mom' makes sure to provide you with the most creative and easy crafts. 
Follow the instructions super mom and your Easter bunny craft will be done in no time.

Easter Bunny crafts

Supplies Needed


  • White card-board
  • Pink crepe paper
  • Transparent Glue
  • Cotton
  • Thin wire
  • Stapler
  • Ribbon
  • Manual Puncher
  • 2 wooden sticks


Directions


  • Draw the Easter bunny mask template on the white card board. Using 2 circles the size of your child's face make the shape of an eight and decorate it with two long ears. The muzzle is an essential part for the mask to look real, so don't forget to add that too.
  • Cut the template out.
  • Using the pink paper crepe, cut two ear lobes and glue them in the center of each ear.
  • Glue cotton all-over the Easter bunny mask and muzzle.
  • Make a small pink ball for the nose.
  • Cut 8 wire strings, 8 cm each, gluing 4 to each side of the muzzle.
  • Glue a wooden stick on the back of each ear, allowing it to stand up straight. This will give it a more professional look.
  • Staple the ribbons to tie the mask around your child's face.
