Free and easy Easter Craft

This is how our l'il guy turned out.

I believe it's supposed to rain most of this week.  So much for springtime walks in the park.

Anyway, a roll of toilet paper, a color printer and some glue can buy you a good half hour of relief from trying to come up with things to entertain the kids.

You can find the instructions and printable piece parts here.

Since you now have a rather cute cylindrical bunny decoration, if you have the toilet paper rolls and the stamina, you could potentially make enough for each place setting for your Easter dinner and put the silverware into them.  My bunny is going to be an only child, though.
