How to Make a Toilet Paper Roll Easter Bunny

Once you have your printable template for your Easter bunny craft downloaded and printed, you can use scissors to cut it out.

Cut the body piece out around the outer border, making sure to cut around the tops of the ears so they stick up over the cardboard tube. Then, cut out the bow tie separately.

After you have all your pieces cut out and ready to go, wrap the template around the toilet paper tube. Glue then blank end to the back of the tube first. Then, wrap the end with the bunny feet on it over the top. Place a line of glue down the edge of the paper and hold it in place while the glue dries.

After that, glue the bow tie under the bunny’s face on the front of the body.

Then, flip the bunny over and attach the white pom pom or cotton ball above the bunny’s feet to make a tail.

Once you have all the pieces glued in place, allow the glue to dry completely before your kids start playing.
