- Glue the cut-out bunny face to the last flap of your folded strips.
- Draw hands and feet on the paper and carefully cut them out.
- Glue your bunny feet to the bottom side of your folded paper and stick the hands under the bunny’s face.

- Draw a bunny face 4xcm wide and 6xcm long on another piece of copy paper. Make sure your bunny’s face does not extend beyond the width of the cardboard roll.
- For bunny ears, cut two smaller ears from different coloured copy paper and glue them together with a glue stick.

Easter Egg Goggles
Things you’ll need:
- Coloured copy paper
- Rhinestones
- Scissors
- Glue stick
Instructions:
- Make an egg shape out of A4 coloured copy paper, 4xcm wide and 6xcm long. Leave a 3xcm wide by 8cm long strip on the corners. Repeat the procedure with the second side of the goggle.
- Now, using a glue stick, join the egg cut-outs in the centre to make a goggle shape.
- Make a circle in the middle of both eggs and cut-it out with scissors or a snap cutter.
- Decorate the egg-shaped cut-outs entirely with rhinestones or sequence. Pom-poms can also be used as decoration.
Egg Decoration
Things you’ll need:
- Polystyrene egg
- Paint and brush
- Marker
- Pom poms
- Glue stick
- Coloured copy paper
- Craft patty pans
Instructions:
- Gather your paint stash for painting the egg. To apply the paint, use a paintbrush or a sponge. You can choose any colour of your choice. Allow the paint to dry completely before applying a second coat for a truly brilliant finish.
- Once the paint has dried, draw the eyes and mouth with a maker.
- The next step is to take a coloured copy paper and draw goggles a few centimetres wider from the drawn eyes.
- Cut the goggles neatly and place them over the drawn eyes using a glue stick.
- You can use Pom poms or rhinestones to decorate the egg.
- To make an outfit, take coloured patty pans and cut the centre with scissors. Put the cut-out at the bottom, and your egg will be ready to steal the show.
