Instructions:
Begin by cutting a large circle from orange construction paper and fold it in half. This will serve as the rocking base of your bunny craft.
Cut out the bunny template pieces from construction paper and assemble them according to the reference image.
Use the pink marker to color the inner part of the bunny’s ears, then use the black marker to draw its nose, eyes, and whiskers.
Once the bunny is fully assembled, glue it to the back of the folded orange base so it appears to be sitting upright.
Attach the bunny’s feet on both sides, making sure they are positioned to give a balanced look.
Then glue the carrot leaves to each side of the base to complete the craft.
Once dry, gently tap the base and watch your bunny rock back and forth!
