Here’s an easy and fun Easter activity. Noah particularly enjoyed this one as he hearts glue.
Firstly we needed a cute sheep that was large enough to glue cotton balls to, so I drew this one up for us to use. We also needed cotton balls and I bought a bag of 300 cotton balls for $2 at a discount store.
Then get your glue out. You could use a glue stick, but my little guy just loves using glue with a paintbrush, so that is what we normally do. This is his favourite part of any glueing activity.
Then start putting the cotton balls on.
Teehee – a wooly sheep.
We made a few of them. This one apparently needed a moustache.
I thought you might like to have a go at your own little wooly sheep!

I am linking this up to The Imagination Tree – don’t forget to have a look at some other fab ideas for playtime with your kids!
Gorgeous idea! I love it. Love your blog too 🙂
I live up in the tropical Whitsundays, QLD, Au and it’s been raining here for weeks and weeks so the perfect indoor project to do with my little man 🙂

Thanks Bianca gorgeous as always. We’re using Easter as an excuse to centre all of our activities around farm and this is perfect. In 2 weeks we’re off to a farm stay and then when we get home we are having eggs delivered for us to incubate and hatch at home. It’s hard to find a meaning for Easter that a 2 year old can understand but I don’t want it to be all about chocolate.
Too cute, love ideas for kids craft.

Hi Belinda, love the blog and glad you found something to do on another of your rainy days. I didn’t think the Whitsundays was so rainy!
Kirsty I know what you mean, I don’t want Easter to be all about chocolate either. The Easter bunny doesn’t bring a lot of chocolate to our house 🙂 Your farm stay and your chick hatching sound absolutely fantastic, what a lovely way to spend Easter! x
Thanks for popping by Vicki! We ahve the same eggs hanging from an easter tree! x
There’s something about cotton balls 🙂 Henry loves them! Very cute!
Thanks for linking up to It’s Playtime this week, I hope to see more of your ideas next Thursday too!
