This little pom-pom lamb is a wonderful springtime craft for kids to make this Easter! You can also make pom-pom Easter rabbits and pom-pom chicks!

Materials

• 1 large white, gray, or cream-colored pom-pom
• black or gray felt
• 2 small wiggle eyes (size is optional)
• large plastic button

• yarn and/or string
• glue dots or craft glue
• plastic Easter egg

Instructions

1. Cut the felt into three ovals; one that is about 1-inch long for the head and two that are about ½ inch for the ears.

2. Glue the eyes in place on the larger oval.

3. Cut a small piece of thread or string for the mouth and attach it with glue. You can also use fabric paint for this step if you'd rather.

4. Glue the pom-pom onto the button to create a stand, press firmly to secure.

5. Glue the head onto the pom-pom. You can place it at an angle, not quite on top and not quite in front.

6. Attach the ears. Press firmly to secure. The pom-pom can be reshaped if needed.

7. Tie a bow with the yarn and glue it below the head.

8. Now place the entire lamb into the egg for an Easter surprise or set him at table place settings.

Tips

• For this craft we recommend glue dots, thick craft glue, or a hot glue gun (adults only). Regular white glue can be frustrating when using it on felt or pom-poms.
• Make a fun table centerpiece or Easter decoration by creating a few more lambs. Place them in an egg carton with the egg tops off. Fill the other spaces with colored eggs and add some Easter grass and place the egg carton on even more grass with some chocolate eggs.
