Bunny Easter Craft for Kids

We had such a fun time creating these easy and quick bunny Easter crafts for kids. The steps are simple and you likely already have the craft supplies in your home!

Supplies:


Directions:

  1. Draw a bunny head onto your cardboard by starting with the ears, sides of the face, and bottom of the face for an even shape on all sides. You can even use a bunny shaped cookie cutter to trace your cardboard if necessary.
  2. Cut out your bunny with scissors.
  3. Carefully hot glue your end piece of yarn to the back of the bunny’s head and begin wrapping the yarn around the cardboard.
  4. Keep wrapping every which way until your cardboard is completely covered in white yarn.
  5. Once your cardboard bunny is wrapped, cut the yarn, and secure the end of the yarn to the back of the bunny with glue.
  6. Glue your pink Pom-Pom ball to the bottom center of the bunny’s face for the nose and 2 googly eyes right above that.
  7. Cut 6-3″ pieces from your pink pipe cleaner, twist the ends of 3 pieces together to make whiskers, and glue the ends on each side of the Pom-Pom nose.

Juicing Recipes

Update: Also learn about the benefits of Juice Plus!

During the beginning of the year, I took on a lifestyle change. I was dreading the diet that was beginning but after baby #3 the weight wasn’t coming off as easily as I remembered. I knew I was eating whatever I pleased. I was not eating in abundance (okay, I was a times) but I was really making the wrong choices. I took on a 28 day detox and cleanse. It focused a lot on eating protein (two shakes a day) and organically. I also was eliminating items like soy, sugar, and simple carbs. The change in eating made a world of a difference in my body. First, I always felt full. I made sure to eat every two hours. Second, I was no longer craving foods. I mean I would HAVE to eat chocolate daily. I mean, if I didn’t get this sweet treat I could go into a rage. Third, I was noticing a change in the way I felt. The weight did not drop initially but over time it did. My body recognized the change. It started burning some fat storage. In addition to looking better, I felt like I had energy.

During that detox, I watched a Documentary entitled Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead. The focus of the documentary was drinking juice (made from juiced vegetables and fruits) daily. In the case of the main character, he was doing this daily for every meal. I wanted to adopt this idea daily for health, not to fill every meal.

I have found having a juicer (over a blender) is very important. The Breville is by far the most popular brand.


Below are some of the most amazing juice recipes (using a juicer) I was able to acquire in my new juicing challenge.
