Easter Carrot Racers PapercraftI had previously posted my little Easter egg holder friends in an earlier post this month, and I got to thinking that this trio would be suited to have their own carrot race cars! This bunny, chick and puppy are ready to race around the egg hunt collecting as many eggs as possible, put together this easy papercraft at your next Easter craft party. See more fun and exciting printables in my shop too! How adorable are these little Easter critters in their carrot cars?! I'm gonna have these set up on the table when we get ready to dye our Easter eggs, this way the kids can have a little play time while they wait for the eggs to dry. Or why not have this ready to go for the kids to make themselves. Download my free printable right below! The bunny, chick and puppy are made separately so you can remove them from their cars, and they double as little finger puppets too!
Materials:
Directions: Step 1. Print out the page on white cardstock. Then cut out all of the shapes with your scissor or craft knife. Step 2. Score all of the dotted lines with your craft knife or you can use the corner of a credit card. Scoring helps to fold all of the flaps. Step 3. Cut out the hole on the top of the carrot car, this is where the animals will sit. Cut slits on the " x" on the back of the carrot, this is where the green stem goes. Step 4. Assemble your car by folding and aligning the flaps, glue them down as you go along. Glue on the triangular bottom as well. Step 5. Cut the dotted lines on the stems, interlock them and insert them through the "x" on the back of the carrot car. Step 5. Assemble the animals by curling the bottom rectangle around your finger and glueing the flap down. I hope you love these little critters driving around in carrots as much as I do!

Those papercrafts are so adorable. My daughter loves making papercrafts and has been collecting them since she was seven years old. I know that she hasn't made a papercraft like that before because I don't see it anywhere in her collection. I am gonna download the file you have attached to your post so that my daughter could also do it and add it to her collection. I think I am gonna let her make two of each because I badly want one also. They are just so cute.
