art and craft ideas easter


hi, this is joelle meijer. here is a fun paintingproject for younger children for easter or just for spring. you will need a sheet of blue constructionpaper to bring out the colours of the painting. cut a large potato in half. one half willbe used to paint the bodies of the chicks. stick a fork in the half potato and dip itin the yellow paint. make potato impressions. do not put them rightat the edge of the sheet to leave room to draw the legs later on. still with the same potato, paint a sun orjust piece of sun in a corner of the sheet. cut a small potato in half and proceed inthe same way as with the big potato to paint

the heads of all the chicks. if you want, you could use the other halfof the large potato to paint some clouds in the sky. take a plastic fork to paint the grass inthe bottom of the construction paper. dip the back of the fork in the paint and drawthe grass with the teeth of the fork. when the paint is dry, draw the legs of thechicks with a black marker and then draw the eyes. then, draw the beaks of the chicks with anorange marker or glue little orange triangles.

hi. i'm amy warkentien from expert villageand we're on step two of our window card. and we're going to put what's going to behindthe window which is a pretty piece of colored paper. it costs $1 to $2 at the craft store.and to make sure that we get it the right size we're going to turn it over. we're notgoing to mark on our pretty paper. we're going to mark on the back side. so, take a penciland trace around your heart that you already have cut out on your card. and then go aheadand cut it out. i'm going to use these nice looking scissors. i'm going to cut away fromwhere this is, a little bit larger, so that it'll be easier to place it inside the card. and then after we have this finished we'regoing to glue it down with a glue stick. make sure to not give kids too much leverage onthe glue stick because they'll go a little crazy and it will get everywhere. so, justcrank it up just a little and go ahead and put it on the back side of you...
