Easter is right around the corner and egg hunts will be the only thing your kids will ever talk about for the next days to come. You can tide them over and keep the excitement with Easter crafts you can make together.
Much like how Christmas is anticipated, kids also mark their kiddie calendars for Easter. And, it’s perfectly understandable why! Easter eggs are colorful and filled with yummy sweets! I still remember getting my own Easter eggs when I was younger. I always looked forward to the different chocolates I’d find inside.
But, until then, it can be hard dealing with overly excited kids. Check out these Easter Crafts to keep them occupied.
Fun & Easy Easter Crafts
Easter Bunny Bookmark
An easter bunny bookmark is perfect for your kids who are starting to be book worms. It’s a great way to keep the childhood fun even in the midst of furthering their knowledge in advance. How cute would that look on the edge of the book pages instead of dog-earing them, right?
See how to make the origami here.
Easter Egg Potato
How cool would stamping easter eggs on paper using a potato be? I’d say it would be a crafting experience for the books. Don’t let them do the carving, though. These easter crafts are the kinds you do with them. So, the carving is definitely your task. ;)

Easter Dirt Cake
Don’t worry. It’s not actual dirt and this is one of those easter crafts that are actually edible. The dirt cake is made of Jello, cream cheese, Oreos and whipped cream. Sounds like a winning tasty combo, right? Give it a go so you know. Check it out here.
Easter Chick
I bet you’ve never thought of painting using a fork. I certainly have never thought of it. But, that’s the great thing about easter crafts or any kind of craft for that matter. You can be as creative and as resourceful as your imagination permits.

Rice Crispies Nests
Now, this is an easter treat I would love to try myself. I love Robin’s Eggs and eating them with rice crispies just made them a whole lot better! Can’t wait to try this. Recipe here.
Easter Wreath
If you have wreaths on Christmas, you most certainly can decorate your house for Easter with DIY wreaths perfect for the holiday. It’s easy to make so you’re sure your kids won’t be at it too long to be bored.

Easter Bunny Cinnamon Rolls
It’s not only my kids that would love these rolls. My parents, my sisters and I would love them too. I might have to make more than one batch just to satisfy each of our bellies! Bunny-shaped cinnamon roll is pure genius and I would not be surprised to see this for sale in bakeries this Lenten season.

Easter Carrot Snacks
From the word ‘carrot’, you probably thought it would be a vegetable snack you already know your kids would not even pay attention to. Nope. It’s the total opposite of healthy. It’s cheese balls packed to look like carrots. The Easter Bunny loves carrots after all which makes it fitting! See how to pack ’em here.
Easter Bunny Paper Plate
Well, I would say this is one of those Easter crafts that has no other purpose except keeping your kids occupied for about an hour or so. At least they’re entertained, right? Add garter on both edges of the plate so they can wear it around their head.

Easter Egg Fruit Pizza
OMG. I am drooling just because I’m looking at this. I don’t really care if it’s in the shape of an egg but I’m sure the kiddos would love the easter feel. As you probably already know, this would be a great idea for your Easter feast.

Easter Egg Greeting Card

Easter Bunnies from Toilet Rolls
One of the things about home crafts, you can use household items that would seem to be of no use anymore to create something nice like these easter crafts. Normally, you’d just throw away the toilet paper core. Start saving them, you’ll need them for easter!
