Instructions

  • To make the front of the basket turn the paper plate upside down. Draw a half circle in the center of the plate and cut it out.
    For the back of the basket, cut a second paper plate in half.
    Let children decorate their basket. We used paint and washi tape.
    To make the basket, staple the second paper plate onto the back of the basket. If you plan on filling it up with treats you should make the staples close together to close any holes.
    Print the eggs, candy, and bow template out and let children decorate them with paint, markers, crayons, or other art supplies.
    Cut the eggs and candy out and glue them inside the basket. Cut the bow out and glue it to the outside of the basket. If desired, fill the basket with Easter goodies.
