Putting a Little Spring In Our Step

With Easter around the corner and the snow still flying, we decided to urge on the fair weather with some spring bunny slippers.  These were super simple, using only felt, pom poms, googly eyes (and what project is complete without googly eyes?), and hot glue. 



After deciding that Billy's bunnies were the mommas and Alexa's were the babies, I completely baffled them when I told them the baby bunnies are called kittens.  Alexa refuses to believe babies can be called anything other than their adult names, but we put together a spring baby themed sensory table to practice all of those crazy names.  I've included Easter grass, Easter eggs, small farm animals that fit inside the eggs, twigs for nest building/sword-fighting, and a fragile bunny.


They work hard to hide, then ever-so-carefully uncover, the fragile bunny.



Need I mention the broom and little garbage can so they can sweep up the stray grass?  I hope they never grow out of their love-to-clean phase!

Next to the box will be facial feature stickers to decorate the eggs.
