Milk Jug Bunny Baskets

Next Thusday is our Spring Celebration Egg Hunt!  A letter was sent home yesterday explaining how to make your milk jug bunny basket for this special event.  If you need some more guidance on how to make the basket, below are directions and sample pictures.  Bunny baskets are due Tuesday, 4/19.

1. Use scissors to cut the milk jug in half. Start cutting the milk jug just above the handle.  Cut all the way around the jug to remove the top half.
2. Cut two long, skinny bunny ears out of white (or any color of your choice) construction paper, each measuring about three inches wide by six inches high.
3. Cut pink (or any color of your choice) construction paper in the same shape as the white, with a width and height half an inch smaller, to make the inner part of the bunny ears. Glue these pieces to the center of the white bunny ears with liquid glue or a glue stick.  Then, glue the paper ears inside the back of the basket with the inner pink ear facing forward. 
4. Glue on eyes and a nose, made out of felt or construction paper.  You can even paint them on. 
5. Glue pipe cleaners or yarn on for the whiskers.  You may draw these on as well. 

Be creative, but most importantly, have fun! :)  Please let us know if you have any questions.
