19 Easter Crafts for Kids That Are Easy, Fun, and Seriously Adorable
In our family, Easter crafts aren’t just an activity — they’re part of how we mark the season. Every year, as spring rolls in, we pull out the paper, paints, and glue sticks and turn the kitchen table into a little workshop. I’ve been crafting with my kids since they could hold a crayon, and even now — at 7 and 11 — they still light up at the idea of making something fun (especially if it involves bunnies, chicks, or pastel-colored anything).
This collection of Easter crafts for kids came straight from our own hands-on afternoons. Some of these are super simple — perfect for younger ones or quick wins on busy days. Others let kids get more detailed and creative. Whether you’re looking for easy Easter crafts for preschoolers, printable spring templates, or just a screen-free way to slow down and connect, I hope you’ll find something here that fits your family too.
Let’s dive into some joyful, messy, totally lovable Easter crafting!
Easter Bunny Basket: A Sweet and Simple Foldable Surprise
We started our Easter crafting with something irresistibly cute — a foldable bunny basket with the biggest cheeks and the sweetest smile. It’s just the right size to tuck in a chocolate egg, a note, or a handful of jelly beans. My youngest couldn’t stop giggling while adding a sparkly gem to the bunny’s ear, and my oldest folded a little “Somebunny loves you” message to hide inside.
This printable bunny basket is easy to color, cut, and fold — perfect for Easter gifts, egg hunts, or little springtime surprises.

Easter Silhouette Art: Simple Shapes, Big Possibilities
This was one of those crafts that turned into a quiet, creative afternoon for all of us. The kids picked their favorite templates (the sideways bunny was the clear winner in our house!) and went all in with pastels, tissue paper, and whatever else they found in the art bin.
The set includes four printable Easter templates — a bunny (side view), a bunny (front view), an egg, and a cross. They’re perfect for spring silhouette art, classroom crafts, or just adding a pop of Easter color to the fridge. You can trace them onto colored paper, use them as stencils for painting, or decorate them with stickers, ribbon, or scrap paper.
So simple, so versatile — and totally satisfying for both little hands and bigger creative minds.

Paper Carrot Decoration: A Bright Little Detail for Any Easter Basket
This paper carrot craft turned out so cheerful, we ended up making a whole bunch to decorate our windowsills and Easter baskets. All you need is some colored paper and a little bit of folding and cutting magic. My daughter insisted that each carrot needed its own tiny smiley face — and honestly, she might’ve been right.
It’s a quick and fun activity for kids of any age, and a great way to add a pop of color to your Easter display.

Cardboard Tube Bunny: A Sweet Upcycled Easter Craft
This little bunny is made entirely from a toilet paper roll — and it turned out way cuter than we expected! We cut one-third of the tube and folded it like a butterfly to make the bunny’s head, then used the leftover piece for the ears and paws. The kids had so much fun drawing on the face and decorating the details in their own style.
It’s simple, eco-friendly, and just the right size to sit on a shelf or peek out from an Easter basket.

Resurrection Scene: A Meaningful Easter Craft for Kids
This craft felt a little different from the rest — quieter, deeper, and really beautiful to work on together. Using layered circles and carefully placed details like the crosses and the empty tomb, the kids built their own version of the Easter story, one step at a time. We used cardboard from an old cereal box for the base and let each child paint and arrange the pieces in their own way.
It turned into a peaceful, thoughtful afternoon, and the result is something we’ll definitely display year after year. This project is perfect for Sunday school, faith-based homeschool units, or just creating space to talk about the meaning of Easter in a way kids can see and touch.

Bunny Gift Bag: The Cutest Way to Wrap a Treat
This Easter bunny bag was one of the easiest crafts we’ve done — and maybe the most adorable. We used small brown paper bags we picked up at a dollar store (you can also repurpose grocery bags if they’re the right size!).
The kids drew bunny faces right onto the bags, glued on pom-pom noses, and filled them with tiny treats and trinkets. Tying them off around the ears made them look like they were ready to hop off and deliver smiles.
It’s the perfect no-template, low-prep Easter project for kids who love to create and give.

3D Paper Hen: A Fun Easter Table Decoration
This cheerful little hen turned out to be one of our favorite Easter decorations! We made the body from strips of white paper, creating a puffed-up 3D shape that looks adorable from every angle. The wings, head, beak, and comb were all cut from paper scraps, and each child gave their chicken its own personality — some with big eyes, some with sleepy lashes, and one with heart-shaped feet.
It’s the kind of craft that looks fancy but is surprisingly easy. And it makes a great centerpiece for the kids’ table at Easter brunch!

Our Cutest Bunny Yet (Yes, the One with the Big Eyes!)
This paper bunny might just be the most adorable thing we’ve made this Easter. Thanks to the printable template, all the tricky shapes are already figured out — you just need to print, cut, glue, and decorate!
Each part is built from simple shapes: circles for the head, body, arms, and legs, plus some sweet pink ovals for the ears and cheeks. Our kids had the best time putting it together like a puzzle and then adding their own flair with markers. Those tiny whiskers? A must!
It’s a great mix of fine motor practice and creative play, and it looks super cute as a DIY decoration or handmade Easter card topper.

Napkin Bunnies: Soft, Silly, and So Easy to Make
We whipped up a whole family of these little bunnies in one sitting — and honestly, we couldn’t stop smiling at how cute they turned out! All you need is a paper napkin, a small rubber band, and some markers. The kids loved fluffing out the ears with a pencil and drawing funny little faces on each one.
It’s a perfect last-minute Easter craft when you don’t feel like printing or prepping. Plus, they double as adorable table decorations or sweet little surprises tucked into a lunchbox or gift.

Another Bunny? Yes, Please! (This One Hops Right on Your Finger)
If you loved the napkin bunny, here’s another variation we couldn’t resist trying. It’s a bit more detailed than the previous one, but still totally doable — even for little hands with a bit of help.
We used a regular paper towel, folded and twisted it just right, and voilà — we had a whole set of finger puppet bunnies, each with its own personality. Drawing the tiny faces was everyone’s favorite part!
This version is perfect if you’re looking to level up your napkin craft game. Plus, they’re so fun to play with afterwards — you might even find your kids turning them into a full bunny puppet show.

Tiny Bunnies from Pipe Cleaners (That Kids Can Actually Make!)
These fuzzy little pipe cleaner bunnies are a favorite around here — mostly because they’re surprisingly easy and turn out ridiculously cute every time. All you need are two pipe cleaners and a couple of quick twists.
Our 11-year-old figured it out right away, while the 7-year-old needed a little help shaping the ears. But once the head and body were ready, everyone wanted to make more — especially in all the pastel colors.
They’re perfect for Easter table décor, egg hunt surprises, or even little keepsakes to give out to friends.

Bubble Wrap Chick: Textured, Bright, and Full of Personality
This little chick started with a leftover scrap of bubble wrap — and turned into one of the most unexpected favorites. We glued the yellow bubble shape onto a black circle, and suddenly it looked just like a chick popping out of an Easter egg. Then came the fun part: sculpting all the details from modeling clay.
The kids really got into it — my youngest insisted on giving the chick a big basket of eggs, and my oldest added dramatic wings and a spiky red comb. It was one of those crafts where each step sparked a new idea.
No template here — just a bit of paint, clay, and imagination.
