Easter Crafts for Kids - Easter Bunny Magnet or Pin

This easy to make Easter craft for kids uses just a few items and costs very little. All you need is wiggle eyes, a pink or gray pompom, glue, a small magnet, fabric paint, and some felt- white, pink, gray, or a combination.

Cut three shapes from the felt- one circle and two long oval shapes that look like Easter bunny ears. You have the option of cutting two more bunny ear shapes that are a little bit smaller than the first two, but it isn't necessary.Glue the Easter bunny ears to the back of the circle. If you cut additional Easter bunny ear shapes, glue them onto the larger ear shapes.Next, glue on two wiggle eyes. Glue a pompom on for the nose.Use a fabric paint marker to draw on whiskers and a mouth.Use glue to attach either a magnet or pinback to the back.A simpler version of this is Easter craft is simply to use construction paper instead of felt. Draw on the mouth and whiskers with a marker.
