Crafting Easter Art

Creative Easter Kits and Ideas

Crafts are a great way to engage children at Easter and although it is traditional to decorate hard-boiled or blown eggs, there are many other simple options on the market today.

Crafty kits and books will give traditional egg decorating a boost. Fluffy yellow pompoms can easily transform into Easter chics (and fluffy white pompoms into Easter bunnies) with a dollop of glue and carefully cut out felt accessories.

Try some of these simple ideas if you are looking to set your kids up with quick and easy crafts.  They will make great gifts for proud grandparents and other family members!
