Woven Easter Eggs

Here’s a fun craft to do with the kiddos during the Easter holiday! Make several to decorate the house for holiday festivities.

You’ll need:
Colorful paper (kiddos can pick their favorites)
Ruler
Pencil
Scissors/children-safe scissors
Easter Egg template

To make:
Use the template to cut out your egg shape. Using the ruler, mark lines an inch apart. Using the scissors, cut along the lines. Next, cut several 1/2 inch wide strips of colorful paper. Weave the strips of paper into the egg shape.

We look forward to seeing y’all here at the farm for loads of Easter fun!

Toilet Paper Tube Trees

The holidays are a great time to gather up the kiddos and make fun Christmas crafts. The great thing about this particular project is that one of the supplies is abundant in most households: empty toilet paper tubes.

You’ll need:
Scissors
Pencil
Paint and brushes
Glitter, puffballs, sequins, or whatever glitzy doodads your heart desires
Empty toilet paper tubes

To make:
Using the pencil, draw out the shape of tree you’d like, make sure that the points of your tree meet at the side. Leave enough room at the bottom for a base.

Carefully cut along the lines (parents can do this for the real little ones). Once your tree is cut out, paint the trees whatever color you or your little ones like. Washable acrylic paint is great for clothes and table tops. 


Once the pain dries, decorate your trees with pain, glitter, stickers, etc. The kids can even stick a photo of themselves on the tree as a cute gift to the grandparents!
