1. Paper Plate Easter Bunny
This classic craft never gets old. With just a paper plate, cotton balls, construction paper, and glue, preschoolers can create the cutest bunny faces.
Start by letting children paint the plate white or light pastel. Once dry, they can glue cotton balls all over to make fluffy fur. Add paper ears, wiggly eyes, a pink pom-pom nose, and draw whiskers with a marker.
What makes this craft extra special is how every bunny turns out unique. Some might have big ears, some tiny noses, and some very silly smiles!
Why it’s perfect for preschoolers:
It strengthens hand coordination through gluing and placing small items while allowing lots of creative freedom.
