Spring means plenty of chick and bunny crafts.  It’s also the Easter season.

While we love doing Easter crafts to decorate the home, my favorite part of the holiday season is snuggling up with the kids to read some of our favorite Children’s Easter books.

  1. Ooh, I didn’t even know there were so many books about Easter. Seems I discovered it just in time 🙂 Thanks!

  2. Norah is just shy of 10 months so we aren’t doing a whole lot for Easter this year but we did get her an Easter basket and she’ll be at church with us. She isn’t into book yet (which makes me sad) she just wants to eat them at this point 🙂

    Side note – Every time I comment on your blog and the spam protection makes me do a little math problem I always have to use my fingers to count… I never realized I was so bad at simple math! haha

    • I remember the “chew on books” stage! 🙂 Enjoy her first Easter!

      Yeah – I get a lot of comments about my math spam plug-in… Just doing by part to keep everyone on their toes!

  3. How fun! I’ve never seen sheep like this. I loved them. My son and I used an empty egg carton once and glued in cottonball chicks. We used it for years. I love all these cute books. You’ve done a great job on all these.

    • Thank you for stopping by! I had thought about gluing chicks in an entire carton… That would be cute to keep through the years — we might need to do that yet!

      • I totally understand the need for it, I just always laugh at myself when I realize I’m.counting on my fingers 🙂

  4. Aw, have fun with Easter. We used to love making pysanky eggs. I wondered at times if I was insane doing a craft that involved permanent dye, raw eggs (in the first years we did not blow them out) and candle flame. But we all survived, so did our house, and the memories are sweet.

  5. We haven’t done much in way of Easter prep this year. We spend Easter with my husband’s family every year so quite honestly his mom does most the work. 🙂 This year we are sharing a Passover meal on Friday with some of our friends from Church so that will be great and a fun new experience. 🙂

  8. Must do the hand print sheep! My daughter will LOVE this craft….and a plus for me, it doesn’t involve dye. ;0)

    • I hope your daughter loves it as much as mine both did. 🙂
      And, I have to agree, crafts that don’t involve dye, or paint, or super messy stuff can be a big plus at times!
