The logo for Take & Make Crafts. It features the name of the program with various craft supplies, and a sneaky hiding Blue the Fox.

Your craft kit includes:

  • An egg template
  • White cardstock
  • Yellow cardstock
  • A popsicle stick
  • Two googly eyes

Supplies you’ll need:

  • Scissors
  • Coloring supplies
  • Glue

Part 1: Make the Egg

Labeled "one." An egg cut out of white paper.

Cut out your egg template.

Labeled "two." An egg shape and half of an egg shape cut out of white cardstock on a brown table.

Trace one and a half eggs onto the cardstock and cut them out.

Attach the half egg to the whole egg, leaving a gap on the top and bottom.

Labeled "three." A colorfully decorated cardstock egg cut in the middle to look like it's cracked.

 Decorate your egg. Then, cut a crack in the middle.

Part 2: Make the Chick

Labeled "one." A sheet of yellow paper cut to look like the outline of a chick on a brown table.

Cut out a chick shape from the yellow cardstock.

Labeled "two." A chick silhouette cut out of yellow paper wears a piece of white paper cut to look like the top of a cracked egg as a hat. A popsicle stick is attached to the bottom of the chick.

Attach the top of the egg to the chick’s head, and the popsicle stick on the bottom.

Next, decorate your chick with coloring supplies and googly eyes.

Labeled "Finished!" Two completed hatching paper chicks peer out of decorated eggs.
