This is an adorable Easter card that has real working parts with little work at all. This is an adorable, working see-saw with the Easter bunny on one side and a baby Easter chick on the other. The see-saw goes up and down with the use of a simple fastening clip. All you have to do is print, cut out, and then fasten the 2 parts together.]]> http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/03/easter-bunny-and-baby-chick-see-saw-paper-toy-card-craft/feed/ 0 http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/03/how-to-make-a-stand-up-easter-bunny-card-for-young-children-preschoolers/ http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/2010/03/how-to-make-a-stand-up-easter-bunny-card-for-young-children-preschoolers/#comments Tue, 23 Mar 2010 05:13:49 +0000 admin http://www.artistshelpingchildren.org/kidscraftsactivitiesblog/?p=2178 Easter is coming very soon so it is almost time to make your own homemade Easter greeting cards for friends and loved ones.
