These cute, easy egg animals are fun to make for both kids and grown-ups.

What You Need:

Eggs
Store-bought or DIY egg dyes (lime green, brown, pink and yellow)
Foam sheets (green, brown, pink, orange and white)
Scissors
Fine tip black marker
Craft glue
Invisible tape

What To Do:

For frog: Dye egg lime green and let dry completely. Cut out a large semi-circle from green foam and two small semi-circles from white. With the black marker, draw a mouth on the green piece and dots for eyes on the white pieces. Apply craft glue to the back of the green piece and adhere to egg. Use invisible tape to hold the piece on the egg until the glue dries. Dab glue on the flat end of each eye and adhere to the top of the egg. Let dry completely.

For monkey: Dye egg light brown and let dry. Cut out a large circle and two small semi-circles from brown foam. With the black marker, draw a nose and mouth on the large circle. Follow the instructions for the frog to glue the circle and ears on the egg. When dry, draw eyes on the egg with the marker.

For pig: Dye egg pink and let dry. Cut out a large circle and two small triangles from pink foam. With the black marker, draw nostrils on the large circle. Follow the instructions for the frog to glue the circle and ears on the egg. When dry, draw eyes on the egg with the marker.

For chick: Dye egg yellow and let dry. Cut out a beak shape from orange foam. With the black marker, draw two lines on the beak. Follow the instructions for the frog to glue the beak on the egg. When dry, draw eyes on the egg with the marker.
