Before You Begin
1. To make the stand for your Nick Jr. eggs, cut a cardboard egg carton into individual cells, turn each cell upside down, and cut an opening in the top just big enough to secure the base of the egg.
2. While the kids are painting the eggs, cut out the paper so they'll be ready to glue on once the eggs are dry.
Step 1
Paint the egg brown. Let it dry.
Step 2
Paint a 4-inch square of construction paper brown. When dry, cut out ears for Little Bill. Detail the ears with the black marker. Glue the ears on the egg.
Step 3
Cut out eyes from the unpainted part of the construction paper. Detail the ears with the black marker. Glue the eyes on the face.
Step 4
Using the red and pink colored pencils, draw a mouth on the construction paper, cut it out, and glue it on the face.
Step 5
Draw a nose and eyebrows. Rim eyes with the black marker.
Step 6
Paint the egg stand yellow. Let it dry. Paint on a red letter "B."
