How to make the Spring Bunny Papercraft:
Part I: Making the bunny
1. Download and print the spring bunny template. The template includes parts of the bunny, like the head, ears, eyes, arms, body, tail and carrot.
2. Trace the patterns on thick craft paper or card stock and cut them out. We’ve used light brown for the bunny, but you can use any shade of brown or even white. The carrot will obviously, be orange and green.
3. Let’s start putting together the first part of our spring bunny papercraft – the bunny! Stick the pink ears on the right places on the bunny’s head.
4. Stick the eyes on the head, somewhere in the middle.
5. Take out your black marker to draw a tiny nose and mouth – let the bunny smile! Use a red or pink marker to shade in some cheeks so that our spring bunny papercraft looks cute. The bunny’s head is complete – let’s put it aside.
6. Let’s move on to the bunny’s body – stick the tail on the body, applying glue on the back of the body.
7. Apply glue on the left and right edges of the bunny’s body, only on the top half. Stick the bunny’s arms on the glue.
8. Don’t forget that our spring bunny papercraft also needs a carrot for the bunny! Stick the green leaf on top of the carrot, applying glue on the back of the carrot.
9. Apply a dab of glue on one edge of the carrot and attach to one of the bunny’s arms so it looks like the bunny is holding the carrot.
10. The bunny’s body is nearly ready – all that’s left to do is to trim any extra of the bunny’s arms that are protruding above the body.
11. And we’ve come to the final step of the first part of the spring bunny papercraft – sticking the bunny’s head on the body! Your bunny is now complete.
Part II: Making the scenery
1. Download and print the spring bunny scenery template. The template includes parts of the scenery, like the background, sun, clouds, grass, and flower.
2. Trace the parts of the scenery template on cardstock of different colors and cut them out. We’ve used blue for the background and different shades of green for the grass. The clouds and sun are obviously white and yellow, but you can make the flower any color you like.
3. Let’s start with that which gives light – the sun! Stick the yellow circle inside the sun shape.
4. Stick the little circle inside the flower shape.
5. Stick the flower on top of the stem. Put it aside.
6. Let’s move on to the background of the spring bunny papercraft. We have two grass pieces – a taller one and a shorter one. Take the taller grass and apply glue on the edges at the back.
7. Stick the grass on the bottom of the background, aligning the bottom edges of the grass and the background.
8. Similarly, apply glue to the back of the shorter grass and stick it on top of the taller grass, aligning the bottom edges as shown below. That’s it – the background scenery of your spring bunny papercraft is done!
Part III: Assembly of the Spring Bunny Papercraft
1. We’re in the final phase of the spring bunny papercraft – the assembly! Stick the two clouds on the top right corner of the blue background and the sun on the top left.
2. All that’s left to do is to arrange the remaining pieces inside the grass, wherever you like. Stick the rabbit and the flower wherever you like by applying glue on the back. There you go – an adorable spring bunny papercraft!
This is a really easy craft and perfect for young kids too. If a parent or older sibling can handle the cutting, the little ones will enjoy applying glue and putting the pieces together – much like a cute little bunny puzzle!
