Easter is a Christian holiday celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is celebrated on a Sunday between March 22 and April 22 in the West. The holiday’s date is not fixed like most holidays. You will need to check your calendar to see when Easter is.
It is a time of new beginnings. Some of the projects below contain techniques that are new to us. Maybe they will be new to you too. Learn how to weave paper or make a pompom out of yarn.

Bunnies are a cute symbol for spring. Here are two cute bunnies that your kids can make. Make an egg bunny for each person at your holiday dinner. If your kids don’t want to use the mask in their imagery play it would look nice at a wall decoration.
