Steps
 |
1. | Draw an egg shape on construction paper big enough to be used as a placemat. | |
 |
2. | Cut out the egg shape. | |
 |
3. | Create a design for your egg placemat. You can draw lines and shapes and color them in with crayons. | |
 |
4. | You can also cut out circles and other shapes from colored paper, gift wrap paper, or old magazine pages, and glue these onto your egg placemat. | |
 |
5. |
Ask an adult to help you sandwich your decorated egg between two sheets of contact paper (as seen from the photo) or laminate between the sheets of a hot laminate pouch (you will need a hot laminating machine for this). | |
 |
6. | Cut the excess film around the egg placemat. | |
 |
7. | Set the table for Easter with your Easter egg placemat. | |
Earth Friendly Tips 
- Use old magazine pages or paper trimmings from your previous craft projects instead of new sheets of colored paper to decorate your Easter egg placemat.
