With perky pink ears and just enough fuzz to make him plausible, this little table-hopper stands ready to greet each brunch guest.

Materials

• Eggs
• Pushpin
• Egg carton
• Scissors
• Pipe cleaners

• Glue stick
• Small pom-poms
• Googly eyes
• Marker

Instructions

1. Although a hard-boiled egg could work here, a blown egg produces a less top-heavy critter. Shake the egg to break the yoke. Use a pushpin to pierce a hole at both ends of the egg and blow (don't inhale!) the insides out.

2. Cut a cup from an egg carton, trim it to make four legs, and cut out the bottom.

3. Cut two ears from the egg carton and hold them in place with the pipe cleaner, wrapping it around the middle of the egg.

4. Place the egg on the four-legged stand, threading the pipe cleaner ends down through the center hole and then wrapping them around the rear legs.

5. Glue a pom-pom nose and tail over the pierced holes in the egg. Glue two googly eyes above the nose and draw a mouth below it.
