Boo-boo Bunnies

Looking for a basket stuffer for Easter instead of candy?  Here is a super cute bunny idea to help your child feel better when they are down and out or have a boo-boo.

 
Materials:
  • small towel or washcloth
  • rubber band (or use clear plastic ponytail holders)
  • thin ribbon
  • google eyes
  • small pom-pom (for the nose)
  • craft glue

 Directions:
  1. Fold the washcloth in half to form a triangle, then roll it from the top point to the long side and fold in half. 
  2. Fold washcloth in half again so that the loose ends point back toward the original fold.  Place a rubber band around the washcloth about 2 inches from the fold. 
  3. Cover the rubber band with ribbon and make a bow. 
  4. Glue the eyes and pom-pom nose onto the bunny. 
  5. When the glue is dry, either insert a small ice pack or small plastic bag (snack size) inside the bunny's tummy section, with instructions to add ice to the bag or place a frozen ice pack inside the boo-boo bunny.
  6. Place in your child's Easter basket and you will be ready to give to your toddler to help get rid of ouchies when needed.
