Instructions<\/em><\/p>\n

1. Glue one cotton ball or pom pom into the bottom of the egg shell. Glue the other cotton ball on top for the head. Ensure they are secure by holding the two balls together for about a minute.<\/p>\n

2. Glue the eyes on to the chick or make your own, using a hole punch to cut out two black circles from construction paper.<\/p>\n

3. Make the chick’s beak by cutting a small square from orange construction paper. Fold the square in half to form a triangle and glue this onto the pom pom or cotton ball under the eyes, to make the beak.<\/p>\n

4. Next, add a little Easter grass to your egg shell or carton cup to make a nest for the chick.<\/p>\n
