Craft Foam Easter Egg Hot Air Balloon

Just like last year on Glued To My Crafts, I’m on a roll with using those simple craft foam egg shapes you commonly find this time of year. It is my mission to inspire you, to take these simple supplies and turn them into EPIC MASTERPIECES within minutes, with your child today!

You won’t believe how EASY it is to pull together this Easter Egg Hot Air Balloon kid craft idea! It all starts with a simple egg shape and I’ve even included a sweet little bunny friend in the provided printable, who is going to be riding in style in his new ride.

When I first started brainstorming this idea, I figured this was a “new way” for the Easter bunny to deliver those treats on Easter Sunday. It’s clever for the season we are in, right?!

So what are you waiting for?! Make the most of your afternoon by checking out {and recreating} our spring themed tutorial that can be found below.

Don’t forget to also grab our FREE BUNNY & BASKET PRINTABLE for you to download, print and use in your creation. I think the bunny is the star of this show so don’t forget to add him in! BTW – an extra big thank you to DailyArtHub.com for the graphics in today’s free printable!

Happy crafting, my friends! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your child’s finished Easter egg hot balloon creations, with us on our Facebook page afterwards! We can’t wait to see how they customize it for the spring season! #gluedtomycrafts
