    Make Easy Bunny Craft

    Your creative buddy says:
    "I can't wait to make a project with you!"

    Step 1: Cut out your bunny shape.

    May need grown-up help
    First, print the bunny's head using the template. Place the bunny template in the middle of your paper plate. Use a pencil or marker to trace around the bunny shape. Now, carefully cut out the bunny. You may need to ask a grown-up to help you make a small hole in the plate to start cutting, as this can be tricky.

    Step 2: Make holes around the bunny's head.

    Use your hole punch to make holes all around the edge of your bunny's head. Try to make them about half an inch apart. It doesn't have to be perfect!

    Step 3: Paint your bunny with fun colors.

    May need grown-up help
    Lay down some newspaper to keep your area clean. Squeeze a little paint onto the newspaper. Now, paint the bottom of your paper plate. You can use any color you like! You can even add polka dots with another color if you want! Let the paint dry completely.

    Step 4: Weave yarn through the holes.

    Cut a long piece of white yarn, about one yard long. Put a small piece of tape around one end of the yarn to make it stiff, like a needle. This will help you push it through the holes. Push the yarn all the way through one hole from the front, leaving a little bit of yarn on the back. Tape the end on the back so it stays. Now, weave the yarn in and out of the holes all around your bunny's head. Try to cross the yarn over the middle of the bunny's face. When you get to the ears, weave the yarn around them too, but try not to let the yarn cross over the space between the ears. You can go through the same hole more than once!

    Step 5: Give your bunny eyes and a nose.

    Glue the two googly eyes onto your bunny's face. Then, glue the small pink pompom right below the eyes for the bunny's nose. Let the glue dry completely before you move your bunny too much.
