She’s Crafty: Easter Bunny Milk Jug Craft

Here’s a fun (and easy!) Easter Bunny Milk Jug Craft for you do to with your little ones this Easter! We have made these jugs for the past few years, and not only have we had a blast making them…but my kids love to store their Easter eggs in them!

All that you will need is an empty milk jug, paper for the ears, a cotton ball tail and a few pipe cleaners and googly eyes. (or you could just draw the whiskers and eyes on). Just cut the top off of a clean milk jug (an adult will have to do this part) and decorate! Fill with Easter grass and this makes for a fun way to recycle a used milk jug into a darling Easter basket!

Added bonus! This makes for a great bin to store your plastic Easter eggs in!

Valentines Day CardsFREE Printable Valentine’s Day Cards!

Wow! I love this! Right now, Spoonful.com has a wonderful selection of totally FREE printable Valentine’s Day cards!

<—We just printed off these darling Disney Princess cards, and I love that they are 9 to a page, so it doesn’t even take up a lot of ink, and if you print on cardstock, you get a very nice quality card. My daughter is now decorating hers with glitter and little gems that we had left over from some holiday projects.

They have a great selection, including cards for both boys and girls, just go to the links below to print them:

FREE Disney Princess Valentine’s Day Cards

FREE Disney Toy Story Valentine’s Day Cards

FREE Disney Fairy Valentine’s Day Cards

I think that the funnest part of the classroom Valentine’s Day celebration is the giving and receiving of cards, and I love that these printable projects keep it somewhat homemade and the kids get to enjoy the actual process. I also love that it is virtually cost free, and still just as much fun as store bought cards!

Don’t forget about the other FREE Valentine’s Day cards that I have shared with you, like these FREE Star Wars printables and these fun FREE Boys Rock Valentine’s printables.

Thanks Spoonful!
