Easter Egg Chick Craft

What you'll need:

• A 2 13/16" X 3 7/8" styrofoam egg
• Yellow craft paint
• 2 yellow pipe cleaners
• 1 red pipe cleaner
• 2 googly eyes
• Orange construction paper or craft foam
• 2 orange pompoms
• Paint brush
• Scissors
• White glue
• serated knife

• Use a serated knife to carve the very bottom off the styrofoam egg so it will sit up.
• Paint the egg yellow and let it dry. (tip: setting the egg on a dixie cup is a great way to let the egg dry)
• Glue two googly eyes onto the egg.
• Cut a small triangle out of the orange construction paper or foam and glue on as a beak.
• Glue the two pompoms on the bottom of the egg as feet.
• Cut the red pipe cleaner into three pieces. Bend each into a loop and stick the ends into the top of the egg.
• To make the wings, start by taking a yellow pipe cleaner and bending one end into a 2 inch loop. Wrap to secure (see wing picture step1).
• Next, wrap the remainder of the pipe cleaner around so that it makes a second layer inside the first loop (see wing picture step 2).
• Finally wrap the rest of the pipe cleaner around so that it makes a third and final layer inside the second layer (see wing picture step 3).
• Insert the finished wing (see wing picture 4) into the side of the egg.
• Repeat these steps to make the wing for the other side of the egg.
