Easy Easter Card Craft for Kids

Before we start, I’m going to tell you I’m not very big on crafts. I’m not your average Pinterest crafter, though I do enjoy getting down with kids to make something. I love their excitement and energy when we make something.

Easy Easter Card Craft for Kids

Because Easter is near, we decided to do a little Easter craft when both my kids were sick for days. Nothing to do, and a lot of energy to burn. This made it perfect craft time.

It took us less than 30 minutes together to finish the craft, once we had assembled all the things. The good part is that all the materials were easily available at home. You probably also have them already if your kids go to school. Or you can always make a trip to the dollar store. I can spend hours there. You can also buy them online here.

And if you do end up at dollar tree, do give these under $20 Dollar Tree Motor Skill Activities a try.

Materials

To make your Easter Card Craft for Kids, here what you need:

  1. white card  21 x 29 cm
  2. colored cards 21 x 15 cm
  3. origami colored sheets
  4. coconut rope 25 cm
  5. scissor
  6. glue stick
  7. pencil

Instructions

Let’s start our Easy Easter Card Craft for Kids:

Step 1: Start by organizing all the materials together. Believe me, this makes any craft making so much easier with kids. Also, when you don’t have everything together, some times kids lose interest. Make them the guardians of all the materials if they are too young to handle the cutting or even pasting.
Step 2: Fold the white sheet into a card. Now using a curvy scissor, cut down the pink sheet one inch smaller than the size of your card front. This will give your card a nice white border. You can use different colors too.
Step 3: Cut 12 one-inch pieces of brown paper. Paste them in the form of a basket weave. One way you can do this is to paste one side pieces and then start pasting as you weave. You might have to take charge at this point because it’s a little tricky.
Step 4:  Cut out egg shapes drawn on colored papers.  Draw their outlines using a black marker if the edges are too rough. This will make it look neater and give the eggs a nice pop. 
Step 5: Paste that eggs around the basket. Let your kids handle the pasting and placement.
Step 6: Encourage the kids to add in more details in the basket. Mine added a bow and a happy easter sticker.
Remember to let your kids be the leader when it comes to creative and constructive play. I hope you will have fun making this easter card craft for kids with your little ones.
