Count the days till Easter

Use an egg carton to build anticipation for the bunny's visit. On each of the 12 days before the holiday, let child tear open one cup's cover to find a small surprise hiding inside. Cut off a cartons top and side flaps, trim the center dividers so that they're level with the ouside edge. Lay the carton face down on a piece of tissue paper. Trace it, then cut along the traced line. Turn the carton right side up again and place a treat, trinket, or a fun note in each cup. Apply glue around each cup and all around the edges. Lay the cut tiddue paper piece over the glue and press it to secure. For extra wow factor cut circles from tissue paper in contrasting colors and affix one circle over each cup with a glue stick.

Got idea from Family Fun, March 2010
