Easter Crafting…

I saw the cutest little Easter craft on Simply Modern Mom the other day and thought it might be something Lauren and I could do together.  I traced a bunch of the eggs onto yellow construction paper and let her loose with the safety scissors.

She LOVES to cut things out.  She thinks it’s the coolest thing ever right now. 

I cut out the little chickie beaks and feet and she helped me glue them on.  I ended up stitching them since she was kind of loosing interest at that point.  We was having more fun eating the M&M’s I was stuffing in.

I think they turned out pretty cute.  The rugged cutting and funky eye placement add to the charm.  We’ll place one by each place setting for Easter dinner.

Tomorrow it’s Easter egg garland.
