Easter Bunny Cat Craft Idea
It’s crazy to think that I’m already starting to share some Easter themed kid crafts on the blog this year. But as crazy as it may seem, this fun filled holiday will be here before you know it {seriously – don’t blink!}
Recently I found this adorable {and groovy} Pete The Cat – Big Easter Adventure book at our local library and I absolutely fell in love it. So much so, I went ahead and bought it for our personal collection already. This children’s book series by James Dean has always been a favorite of ours as of late, and I’m super excited to be sharing this Paper Plate Easter Bunny Cat kids craft with you all today.
Not only is this latest craft tutorial from us perfect to celebrate the book and the upcoming Easter holiday – but it’s also really easy, inexpensive and fun for all ages!
On that note, what are you waiting for? Let your imagination go wild and create this adorable craft with your child today. Don’t forget to grab the book to read in celebration, find out how Pete The Cat helps the Easter Bunny and really make an afternoon out of it! Happy crafting my friends!
