Because this Easter craft tutorial includes a free printable template, it is a good project for all age groups. Even small children should find most of the steps pretty easy since they already have guidelines for cutting out the necessary shapes.
I used hot glue for this project since it is versatile and, therefore, my glue of choice for most projects. But you could probably get away with using a glue stick or liquid glue with no issues.

- Foam sheets (pink)
- Black marker
- Ribbon
- Candies
Tools
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Black marker
- Hot glue and glue gun
Instructions
The first step is simply to cut out all of the shapes from the template. Just follow the guidelines carefully to do so. You will cut out the shape of the box, as well as the bunny’s paws and head.
- When you have the box shape cut out, fold along the dotted lines. That means folding up the sides and folding in the tabs.
- While the free printable gave you most of the basic shapes you need to complete this project, you still have a bit of creative work to do.
- Use a pen or pencil to carefully sketch the pads which will go on the bottom of the bunny's feet on the pink foam sheet.
- On the same pink foam sheet, you also can draw the shapes of the bunny's inner ears.
- Cut out the paw pads and the inner ears from the pink foam sheet.
- You can now glue the inner ears to the bunny’s outer ears.
- Likewise, you can now glue the paw pads onto the feet.
- Now that the feet are ready, return to the bunny's head. Using a black pen or marker, draw on the bunny’s face. Here you can use your creativity to decide what you want your bunny to look like.
- Now that you have each of the components of the Easter bunny treat box prepared, it is time to start assembling the whole.
- Previously, you folded along the dotted lines on the section which is to become the box that holds the treats. Push the sides of the box upward, and use glue on the tabs to attach them to one another so that you have an open but complete container. Wait for your glue to dry.
- Attach the bunny's head to the back of the box at the top so that it sticks out above the box. Then, attach the bunny's front paws and feet to the front. The front paws should go at the top, with the feet below. Once again, wait a couple minutes for all the glue to dry.
- The final step is to put some Easter grass and candies inside the box.
