Kids Crafts for Easter

Brooke has a couple cute ideas for Easter crafts that are inexpensive and since there is no hot glue involved (for once), they're probably suitable for different ages of kids to make!

For the first one she is making bird's nests out of string, balloons, glue and water. Dissolve some white glue in water, soak colored string in it, wrap it around a balloon and let dry. Remove the hardened string from the balloon either by pulling it off or popping the balloon if necessary. Voilà, you have a cute string bundle that looks like a birds nest - for Easter you could fill with candy eggs, plastic grass, little chicks, etc. This is also a cute craft for other times of year! Love it, good idea B.

The second one is shown in the middle of this video - she is simply stringing plastic eggs onto string to use as a garland. She's making hers to drape over her door but you can make it as long or short as you want and place it anywhere. I've never noticed but apparently there are little holes in the top and bottom of plastic eggs, perfect for stringing them up. She doesn't show the finished garland, but after she strings a couple of eggs you get the idea of what it'll look like.

Watch her intro even if you don't want to make kids crafts - her saying how 'excited she is about Easter, because Easter means spring, and she loves spring' is super cute.
