Chickadee Card
- Total Time Needed:
- 1 Hour
When it comes to hatching one of these Easter cards, the egg decidedly comes before the chicken.
- Materials
-
- White poster board
- Yellow construction paper
- Scissors
- Colored markers
- Glue
- Paper fastener
- Instructions
-
-
To make the eggshell, cut a pair of matching ovals, one for the front and one for the back, from the white poster board (the shells shown here are 5 inches high). -
Cut a simple chick from the yellow construction paper, making sure that it will fit within the dimensions of the egg. Use the colored markers to draw on eyes and a beak.
-
Center the chick on one of the white ovals and glue it in place.
-
Cut off the upper third of the other oval with a zigzag line that looks like a crack. Glue the bottom piece onto the chick, matching up the edges with the back oval, as pictured.
-
Lay the top piece of the cracked shell over the chick's head, but do not glue it in place. Instead, use the paper fastener to attach a lower corner to the rest of the egg (it should work like a hinge).
-
Finally, add your Easter greeting to the front or the back of the egg.
