“How to Make Easter Baskets Out of Milk Jugs”
Here’s a fun Easter craft to do with your little ones before the Easter bunny comes. This craft uses critical thinking, helps with fine motor skills and creativity.
Supplies Needed:
- Milk Jug
- Construction paper
- Scissor (or pre cut construction paper)
- Hole punch
- Glue or tape
- String
- Crayons or Markers
- Stickers (optional)
Building an Easter Basket:
- Cut the top off the jug and discard (adult job)
- Use the hole punch to create your two handle holes on either side
- Cut the construction paper to the size of the bottle
- Decorate your construction paper on a flat surface
- Fish the string through the handle hole (tie a knot on the inside to prevent your handle from coming loose). You may want to use more than one string fro a stronger handle.
- Glue or tape the decorated construction paper to the milk jug
All done! Now you they have their very own Easter basket for Easter eggs or decoration. Share a picture of your child and their Easter basket to our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/signbabysign
