Easter is one of the best holidays for little ones who love all things bunnies, chicks, and sheep! We love all of the above and handprint projects, too, so naturally, we created this handprint Easter bunny craft made from paper.
It’s another one of our easy Easter crafts for kids!
Wondering what makes it an Easter bunny and not just a regular bunny? Well, he’s white, just like the big guy we always see at Easter malls, and he’s popping out of an Easter egg!
This activity is a fun idea for the week leading up to Easter. Grab your supplies, make them, and then display them proudly for everyone to see. It’s so adorable your kiddos won’t want to take it down!
Read our directions below to watch our quick video tutorial to make this bunny.

Directions
Start by downloading and printing the template. Once the template is printed, gather the materials for this fun activity. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this Easter bunny to life!

First, guide your child to trace your child’s right and left hands onto a separate piece of white paper. Next, glue the little nose just above where the bunny’s mouth would be.

Glue the eyes right above the nose, one on each side.

Place the pink inner ear pieces in the right in the middle of each handprint and glue them down.

Now, help your child to carefully take these handprints and glue them behind the top of the bunny’s head.

Position the body piece right behind the head, on the bottom and glue it in place.

Next, use the circle punch to make a bunch of colorful circles and then glue them all over an eggshell.

Finally, encourage your child to glue the decorated eggshell to the front of the bunny’s body.

Now, your child can proudly display their masterpiece. Check out our collection of handprint crafts for more fun ideas!

Such a delightful and engaging craft! My nephews had an absolute blast creating their own Handprint Easter Bunny through tracing and decorating. The joy on their faces as they carefully traced and decorating the bunny egg shell was priceless. It's a fantastic activity that combines creativity and Easter fun, making it perfect for kids of all ages! ❤️ Also, thanks to this website, they are now crafting instead of using their mobile phones at night. 🙌🏻😊
