To make this craft even quicker, use self-adhesive craft foam.



What You Need
Large green plastic egg, about 3 1/2 inches tall
Dark green self-adhesive foam or construction paper
2 self-adhesive wiggly eyes
1 green medium-sized pom-pom
Craft glue
Blue felt
White felt
1 tiny red pom-pom



What You Do

Step 1
For the shell: From the green self-adhesive foam, cut out a large oval, about 4 inches long and about 3 inches wide. Remove the paper backing and secure it to the long side of the egg.



Step 2
For the head: Have kids press two wiggly eyes onto the green pompom. Then they can glue the green pom-pom to the top of the egg, just below the shell.



Step 3
For the hat: From the blue felt, cut a 3/4-inch circle. From the white felt, cut a slightly smaller circle. Glue the white circle on top of the blue circle. Then glue the red pompom to the white circle. Once dry, glue the hat on the Tuck's head.



Step 4
For the base: As the hat dries, cut a strip about 1/2 inch wide by 7 inches long from the green foam or construction paper. Curve it to form an oval-shaped loop, overlapping the ends and stapling or gluing them in place. Place Tuck inside the oval base.
