Easter Chick Nursery




Source of Recipe

What you'll need:

twelve 1" yellow pompoms

twelve 1½" yellow pompoms

orange felt for beaks

24 tiny black beads for eyes

twelve 3/4"-diameter plastic Easter eggs that open

Tacky glue

Toothpicks

Easter grass

Empty 12-egg carton

Glue a small pompom to large pompom to form chick's head and body (separate some fibers to attach them more easily). Cut diamond shape from felt small enough for the little chicks' beaks. Fold in half. Using a toothpick, run glue along the inside of the fold and press together to hold beak shape. Put glue on outside of beak fold and insert between fibers on heat. Glue beads on, above the beak for eyes. Place small amount of glue in bottom of Easter egg half, place chick on glue with head up (as if cheeping). Note: Some kids like to take the chicks out of the eggs, so the glue is optional here. Arrange chick-filled Easter eggs on plastic grass in an egg carton.

Tip: For more fun, paint and decorate the egg carton in pastel colors.
