| Activity Ideas: Bunny Ears Take a strip of paper and measure it around the child's head. Make ears(with white and pink construction paper) and attach the ears to the ring! Fuzzy Wuzzy Pins To make these pins, start with a large cotton ball and glue on two wiggle-eyes. (these can be bought at craft stores for pennies) Basic fuzzy wuzzies can be turned into different creatures by adding paper ears, yarn, whiskers, and whatever else you would like to add. Use safety pins to attach the fuzzy-wuzzy to your shirt. Carrot Artist Children can dip the sharp end of the carrot in paint and then draw with it. Or dip the green ends in paint with the leafy parts. Bunny Print Poem Put the following poem on the bottom of a piece of white paper: Have student dip their hands in finger paint and press a hand print on the paper. "Five little Easter bunnies sitting in a row; They are made of my very own fingerprints, you know. Five little Easter bunnies are hopping to say, Love and kisses from your Teaching is a Work of Heart this happy Easter day." Balloon Bunny You take and trace the kids shoes out on card stock blow up a balloon, leaving a small slit in the center to insert the balloon and add bunny ears to it. Takes about 5min. Let the kids decorate with stickers, glue and construction paper and markers. Can Bunny Materials: Tuna Can , Felt Markers , Glue , Scrap Construction Paper , Cotton Ball Directions: Cut a piece of felt to cover the outside of the tuna can, and glue it in place. Use your imagination, construction paper, scrap felt, markers, and anything else you want to decorate the can to look like a bunny. Glue on the cotton ball for the bunny's tail. These bunny containers can then be filled with Easter treats! Perfect for jelly beans. Bunny Baskets Use the bottom 1/3 of a 1 pint narrow milk carton. Staple (adult do this) a 1" strip across the top for a handle. Have cut out ready, 'bunny' shapes - sitting up bunny - ears on top, round head and fat body, width of milk carton (a bit like the traditional cat drawing) If children are able, get them to decorate the basket with paper chips (small pieces of paper cut or torn) and draw on bunny's face. If child is not old enough, adult do bunnies face and glue or paste it on one side of the basket. One easy way to decorate (need to supervise though) is to let children paint the basket with glue and dip it into a container of confetti. Let children glue a cotton ball on opposite side of basket for bunny's tail. Put cotton balls, paper shavings or grass in the basket as a nest for the eggs. Ours used to take two hen eggs - one boiled egg decorated by the children and one chocolate one left by the Easter Bunny while we were outside playing. |

You steer the course you choose in the direction of where you want to be today, tomorrow, or in a distant time to come. You hold the tiller. You can decide to alter the course of your life at any time. No one can ever take that away from you. You can decide what you want and go after it. It's always your next move. |
