Are you a Seuss fan? Then you won't want to miss this project! I am participating in Craft Lightning this month, and the theme was Dr. Seuss. My favorite of his books is The Lorax, so I decided to make some quick and easy truffula trees!

These are super duper easy and you only need a few basic supplies to make them: yarn, paper straws, some glue, and a needle and thread. Gather up your supplies, then check out my video to see how it’s done!

We hope this simple craft idea will inspire a whole lot of different designs your kids will be making (we also plan to share a few more ideas). We really think this is the “essence” of crafts, to see how a project is made, to make it and then to apply the technique on your own creations.

This craft can be easily made by preschoolers (some help with folding the base might be needed), kindergarten and older kids. As with all craft ideas, some modifications are needed to make the craft fit a specific age range (using larger circles, omitting the grass, only making one chick…). Older kids can even add more details such as flowers, Easter eggs in the grass…

This project is fun for the classroom, you can have each kid create their own Spring Chick Craft and then you can place them one next to the other and in rows to make one large and gorgeous chick filled meadow.
