I wanted Alex to make his Grandmother a special little Easter gift. So I came up with the idea to make a balloon yarn basket. I remember making them when I was little. So I blew up a balloon, cut some yarn into strips and mixed up some glue with water. Alex dipped the yarn into the glue mixture and draped it over the balloon. He did a few strands and then decided it was "yucky" so I ended up doing the rest.

We let dry for a couple days and then he popped the balloon. This was Alex's favorite part!

The eggs were just for photo purposes. |
We will add a little bit of Easter grass and a few goodies. I really hoping to make some of
these.
So there you have it...a cute little Easter gift for "Grammy"
I love it! This is one activity we will probably borrow for next week! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI was actually looking for a way to make little nest for Easter but did'nt find anything on google. Nothing easy for the kids at preschool anyway.. SO I wil definitely "steal" your idea for next year! IT is so simple yet so effective. I love it.
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool! Keep saying I need to do this one with my kids... ha ha... love it!
