Cute Hatching Chick Craft and Free Template for Easter

Use the FREE template to make a CUTE Hatching Chick Craft for Easter. Just follow the easy directions and let kids have FUN being creative!

Children can make a hatching chick craft for Easter with our free template to decorate for spring. The template comes with two versions because I love giving you options. Once the template is printed kids will decorate an egg, make a chick, and assemble the craft. Once it’s completed the egg can crack open to reveal a cute little hatching chick inside. Your kids will love it!

Here are Little Tiger and Little Dragon with their Easter Egg Chicks. Didn’t they turn out too cute! They love how the egg opens and closes so their chick can peek out.

Print the egg template on white or colored paper depending on if you want a plain white egg for decorating or a colored Easter egg. Print the chick template on yellow paper.

You can let kids decorate the egg template or leave it plain white. We used Washi Tape and Fast Drying Paint Sticks/Kwikstix because they dry so fast, allowing us to finish it in one sitting. You could also use makers, crayons, or paint. Once they are done decorating and everything is dry have them cut it out, including the line in the middle.

Let kids decorate the chick template and draw eyes or glue on goodly eyes.  Color the beak and feet orange.  Cut the chick template out, making sure to only cut the outline of the chick and not the inside of it’s wings or they will fall off (which can always be fixed with a little tape).

Line up the templates so the chick is behind the egg. I clipped each side with clothespins to hold everything in place.

Punch a hole towards the bottom of each egg piece and secure the chick and egg together with a brad and the chick is ready to play peek a boo this Easter!

  • These little bugs took no time at all to make and are a pretty self-guided craft for kids. Little Tiger finished chopping potatoes while helping me make dinner and found our bags full of lids on the counter (3 bags to be exact–no lid gets left behind in our house :). Before long I looked over and there were 3 bugs staring back at me and no mess in sight! Since the little bugs sitting on my counter make me smile when I look at them I thought you should have some too.
  • This activity helps kids learn to count to 100, introduces them to place values, helps with number recognition and number relationships while allowing them to be actively involved as they learn instead of just staring at a chart with lots of numbers which can be overwhelming.
  • We love stars around here so naturally one of our favorite things that live in the ocean is starfish aka sea stars. They come in all different shapes, sizes, and textures so we have provided you with a free craft template to make a big, medium, and small size starfish craft with your kids. We also show you how to take your craft to the next level by giving it texture and folding it to give it dimension, and if you want you can give it added color with paint. Each one will turn out amazing!
  • When this sunset Tissue Paper Craft is hung in a window it magically seems to glow resembling the beauty of a real sunset on the horizon. No glue or scissor skills are required, so this craft is easy to clean up and perfect for kids of all ages!
  • One of the most beloved children’s authors has to be Dr. Seuss who happens to have a birthday coming up on March 2nd. Did you know he wasn’t technically a doctor?– but that’s okay we still love him anyways! To start celebrating my kids picked out Horton Hears a Who!
  • The set comes in a print-in-color or a color-me (coloring book) version. You can print the set out and assemble it, or extend this activity further by letting your students color their own spinner increasing their recognition of each picture.
