Easter Egg Theater or Fashion Show. Kids can put on a puppet-style play of the Easter story – or any story they’d like tell – with Easter egg characters. Use PAAS Egg Heads™ decorating kit to create characters using our funny face stickers, felt hats and collar stands. Or, little ones can draw their own characters using the pens and brushes in the Megga Family Fun™ kit, stickers in the EGGspress Yourself and Bugs decorating kits, Sparkling Glitter™ kits, or Color Cups. Learn how to make a flesh-colored dye at Easter Egg Decorating Tips.

Bunny Headbands. The whole family can have fun pretending to be bunnies!

Supplies:

Grey and pink construction paper
Glue

Directions: Measure each future “bunny’s” head, and cut a piece of construction paper long enough to create a headband. Glue the paper together so the headband fits snugly on each head but is loose enough to take off easily. Cut two ears from gray paper, and then two “inner" ears from pink paper. Let each bunny glue their pink ear to their gray ear. It's okay if it's a little off—it's art! Then, either staple or glue the ears to the headband. Now you’re ready begin your bunny party: hopping around and eating carrots for a snack! For even more fun, draw on bunny whiskers with black eyeliner.
