We absolutely love eggs in our house and have so much waste with packaging that we decided to draw up a list of the best egg carton crafts for kids!
You will be pleasantly surprised at how much you can actually make with an empty egg carton!
We have made animals, treat holders and even gifts from them.
All you need is some creativity (or my list below) to whip up something great!
I also asked some of my crafting friends for their best ideas and they were kind enough to share!
The best list of egg carton crafts for kids you will ever find! I should you how to transform egg cartons into anything you want! One of my favorite easy spider crafts for preschool kids! You can make this at any time of the year or even for Halloween! Why not attach a string and dangle him from a light to give everyone a scare! He requires some pipe cleaners, paint and googly eyes. Still on my Halloween theme I bring you this scary ghost! I love ghost crafts for kids and like my others this is simple to put together! We always try and make some ghosts for our annual Halloween party and this one goes down well. You can even add some bright colors and make a friendly rainbow ghost. What a cute little fall craft! Kids will have a blast making their own apple container for treats! Add some candy or a few raisins and give one out to each classmate 😉 They can eat these during their morning break! I love my octopus mobile craft! How cool do these little girls look dangling from the ceiling! These are made with egg cartons and pipe cleaners. You could hang them in a utility room or child's bedroom. I love my Easter chick craft which features a cute pom pom chick hatching out of an egg carton. You can paint and decorate the egg carton however you wish. How fabulous does that Christmas tree decorating look? The good news is that it is simple to make with an egg carton and some other materials! You can make lots in different colors. Just in time for Easter, this bunny craft is adorable! I love Easter bunny crafts for kids. You need two cartons, some paint, a marker and cardstock to make ears. Frog crafts for kids are awesome during Spring and Summer! This egg carton frog is more difficult to make than some of my other egg carton crafts for kids, but it looks amazing! If you love this why not make mypaper plate frog as well! Hands up if you live with a Star Wars fan?! If so I can bet they will love egg carton crafts for kids like this Baby Yoda! How fab and realistic does he not look. Why restrict yourself to one small egg carton when you can use the entire set and create a fabulous alligator. Reptiles like these will be hugely popular with little boys. Pirate crafts for kids can include this treasure box. This is an easy painting craft with an amazing end result! Who would believe this is initially an egg carton! This is a great way to make a hen!! At first look you cannot even see an egg carton, but I can ensure you it is part of the craft. Egg Carton Crafts for Kids
