Chances are, you already have the supplies lying around the house. Make some of these bunnies – each with their own personalities – and fill them with candy for a fun Easter activity to do with the kids.

Supplies Needed to Make Egg Carton Bunnies
Here are the supplies you will need to make this egg carton craft:
- Egg Carton
- Acrylic Paint – pink, yellow and baby blueÂ
- Scissors
- Googly Eyes
- Pink Pom Poms
- White Foam
- Masking Tape
- Glue – we like to use this kind which is stronger for gluing on pom poms and googly eyes
- Black Marker
Directions to Make an Egg Carton Bunny
1. Begin by cutting 2 egg compartments and trimming off any excess to create a flat top to the cartons.
2. Place the trimmed egg cartons on top of each other with the flat tops touching.
Take a piece of masking tape and put a small piece on the back of the cartons.
Then open up the egg carton and place another piece of masking tape on the inside.
3.  Paint the egg cartons a spring color.
We love these baby blue, yellow and pink paint colors that match the mini eggs!
4. Cut 2 bunny ear shapes out of the foam.
5. Once the paint has dried, add the eyes and pink pom pom for the nose with glue.
Glue on the ears as well.Â
Take a thick black marker and add whiskers and eyelashes if desired.
Now fill with candy and enjoy!
These would be cute to put up for your Easter Egg hunt or as decoration on a table for Easter dinner!
