Egg People Easter Craft
One of our favourite Easter crafts for kids — making characters with eggs! Not only do they make great Easter decorations as a twist on traditional Easter eggs, you can play with them as toys too. Here's our version of 'Egg People', all dressed up quite smartly, most probably for a chic spring picnic on Easter holidays!
They are very easy to make from our colourful templates that resemble cupcake wrappers. You can also make a whole village of egg people and egg animals and set up a little Easter scene. There's also a 'Travelling Egg People' version — an egg family out and about on the road.
How to make egg people
What you need: printed templates, scissors, glue or tape, hard-boiled eggs or blown eggs.
- Print the templates — print on slightly thicker paper if possible, or normal copy paper works fine too.
- Cut out the body wrapper shapes carefully along the outline.
- Wrap each template around a hard-boiled egg or a blown egg, overlapping the tab and securing with a small piece of tape or a dab of glue.
- The top of the egg becomes the head — you can add a face with a marker pen, or draw on the printed template before wrapping.
- Stand the egg people upright and arrange in a scene. They balance nicely on their own thanks to the wide base of the wrapper.
- For the travelling version, place the egg family in a small toy car or make a paper road from our play roads template!
