Here's what you'll need - experiment with all the same colour, or complimentary shades;
- Paper cupcake liners in two sizes,
- Craft chickens,
- Chocolate eggs, &
- Shredded paper.
To make the craft ensemble;
- place a small cupcake liner inside a large one.
- Inside the large liner, (and around the smaller one), place some shredded paper.
- Inside the small cupcake liner place a chicken and a chocolate egg.
- Resting over the top of the whole arrangement place another large cupcake liner so that the 'nest-egg' is closed.
When visitors arrive at their table setting, or children arrive looking for sweet treats, they can lift the lid, (or hatch the egg), and there inside will be a nest bearing gifts!
This is a quick and easy craft which toddlers and preschoolers will enjoy making as much as eating... so go on... make an edible nest egg with your own cheeky chicks!
