Primary TechniqueOther
Materials List
- 1 small yellow pail
- Yellow and orange craft foam
- Medium sized googly eyes
- Scissors
- Glue Dots
Instructions
-
Use scissors to cut an orange beak and 2 yellow wings from the craft foam.
-
TIP: Fold the craft foam and cut both wings at the same time for perfect, symmetrical wings!
-
Then attach the beak and wings to the pail with Glue dots.
-
Next, cut a small, rounded piece of yellow craft foam to act as “feathers” for the top of the bucket. Cut small slits on the rounded piece and use your fingers to fluff them out. Attach the feathers to the inside of the bucket with a Glue dot.
-
f desired, cut small chick feet from orange craft foam. A rounded heart shape makes cute feet! Attach them to the bottom of the bucket with a Glue dot.
-
Fill the the Easter Treat Pail with paper grass (I love the look of our buttery colored grass ”it’s reminiscent of straw) and fill the pail with treats for Easter.
-
Bubbles, stuffed toys, chocolates, and crayons will all be enjoyed by small hands! For teachers, consider filling with gift cards, powdered drink mix, chocolates, and lotions!
