First, guide your child to grab a piece of green paper and fold it in half. Place your child’s left hand on the paper, ensuring the fold aligns with the outside of their pinky.

Then, help your kid trace around their hand and cut it out, leaving the pinky fold line uncut. This will be the base of their cute card.

Draw a circular decoration in the center of the flower, then glue the leaves to the back of the flower.

Finally, encourage your child to glue the flower in the middle and bottom of the group of the Easter eggs.
