40+ Best Easter Crafts for Kids of All Ages

Transform upcycled supplies into these cute animal figures. Use colorful party napkins for clothes (and the chick's nose), cardboard tubes for the bodies, and card stock for the bunny ears. Draw on faces with black and pink paint pens.

To make these adorable napkin bunnies, fold a square dinner napkin in half diagonally into a triangle shape (have an adult iron it flat first to make the DIY easier). Starting at the top of the triangle, roll the entire napkin, then place a decorated egg right above the center of the roll. Finally, gather the ends at the top so the napkin wraps around the egg and tie it with ribbon to create ears.

Kids can emblazon eggs with their names or cute Easter-related phrases using letter stickers. Press a sticker firmly onto a hard-boiled egg. Stipple dots around the letter with a paint pen, starting with dense dots and gradually spreading them out into an oval shape. Let dry, then have an adult remove the sticker with a craft knife. Hot-glue opposite ends of a plastic egg together to make a colorful holder.

How adorable are these festive spring treats? The whole family will have fun making and decorating them — not to mention eating them, of course!

To make these deceptively easy gumball machine eggs, cut off the bottom of a mini red plastic cup and glue the piece onto the top of an egg. Attach colorful dot stickers as gumballs. Flip the cup upside down and put a strip of silver tape on the front of the cup, wrapping one end over the cut cup edge. Hot-glue a soda tab over the tape. Glue the egg inside the cup base.

A kids' umbrella is the centerpiece of this adorable project. Have the kids fill the inside of the umbrella with the flowers and greenery, then an adult should trim ends as needed using wire cutters. Tie a ribbon around the middle to hold everything in place, and you're done.

Fold pipe cleaners to form ears and attach them to spoons with craft glue. Draw bunny faces on the spoons using markers, paint, or colored pencils. Dip a pencil eraser in pink paint to "stamp" on cheeks.

Place candy in the middle of a 10" x 20" piece of burlap fabric. Fold sides then tie fabric at the top with a ribbon. Cut a "V" shape from the center of the excess fabric to create bunny ears.

Fold a crepe paper rectangle in half twice; cut strips a few inches down. Unfold and roll paper into a tube. Tousle the fringe and attach it to an inflated balloon with a dab of glue. Draw squiggly lines with an orange paint pen.

To create tiny cones, start with brown eggs. Draw cone lines with a copper paint pen, decorate the top half with craft paint, and draw on faces with a paint pen. Use cotton and a red pom-pom to create the whipped cream topping. For 3D sprinkle eggs, all you need is puffy paint.

Skip the mess this year by making these pipe cleaner Easter eggs. Attach one end of a pipe cleaner to the top center of the egg with a small dot of hot glue and let dry. Carefully coil the pipe cleaner around the egg, adding small dots of hot glue as you go. Snip off any excess pipe cleaner once you have reached the bottom of the egg and secure the end with one last dot of glue.

To make this easy Easter wreath, attach 17 pom-poms to a 12-inch craft ring with hot glue. Cut ears from white and pink felt and use glue to attach together, then to the back of the craft ring.

Use squares of card stock to make cone shapes, then cover with orange crepe paper. Cut green crepe paper into strips and place inside the cones for carrot tops.

You don't have to limit your Easter crafting to dyeing eggs (though you totally can). For this project, use a permanent marker to draw a face and hair on a ceramic egg. Wrap the bottom third in yarn, and secure with clear craft glue. Get creative and add collars, bows, and buttons with felt and beads.

Keep the kids occupied with this craft by prompting them to add ears, nose, and eyes to any pink crepe paper ball to make an adorable little bunny.

Have your craft and decorate with it, too. All you have to do is dye some eggs a few different shades of your favorite color and arrange them in a clear glass vase. For an added touch of spring, build a bouquet of faux flowers in matching colors and nestle the stems among the eggs.

Have your little ones grab all of their misfit crayons, soak them in warm water, and then place them in a bunny muffin tin. Bake them at 200 degrees for 24 minutes, or until the crayons have melted. And voila! You have some adorably festive colors.

Brighten up anyone's day with this Easter wreath that you can put up at the beginning of spring and leave all season long. To make, you'll need colorful tissue paper, a glue stick, hot glue, foam eggs in various sizes, faux greenery, and a wreath form.

Cut 1⁄4-inch and 3/8-inch strips of tissue paper. Use the glue stick to adhere thinner strips to smaller eggs and thicker strips to larger eggs. Wrap tissue paper around egg lengthwise, then apply second strip horizontally. Continue attaching until the egg is completely covered. Arrange faux leaves and eggs around the wreath form and hot glue into place. Secure eggs to each other with hot glue where necessary. Once assembled, hot glue a few more greenery sprigs in between eggs for an extra plush look.
