Before we hop into the world of bunnies, let's gather our crafting essentials: a paper plate, some paint, glue, and colorful construction paper for the ears and nose.

Start by painting the paper plate, which will be our bunny's face. While it dries, cut out two long ears and a cute little nose from the construction paper. Once the plate is dry, glue it on the ears and nose. This fun and easy preschool Easter craft brings joy to the little ones and helps develop their fine motor skills. Isn't it fascinating how educational Easter activities can be this much fun for preschoolers?
Now that our bunny is ready, what might it see with its almost panoramic vision?
