- Cut a large oval shape from the white foam sheet and the same shape from the yellow foam sheet.
- Glue 2 joggle eyes onto the centre of each oval shape and then cut out small triangles for the bunny nose and the chicken’s mouth. Glue into place.
- Use a marker to draw facial accents onto the foam.
- Feathers and further foam will create bunny ears and chicken feathers. Glue these and the wooden dowel onto the back of the face to create your Easter puppet.
- Select colours for your flower and use the remaining foam sheets to cut out petals and leaves. Glue into place on the wooden dowel painted green.
- Repeat the process until you have as many Bunnies, Chickens and Flowers that you require.
- Place around your garden before commencing your Easter Egg hunt!
