There are many things you can do with newspaper, papier mache is one of them and since Easter is coming, we will show you how to make a cute paper mache bunny that can wiggle.
This is a really fun activity and you probably already have all the necessary materials at home.

What you need
Tear the newspaper into small strips. Put a few pebbles (or other things) inside the balloon (you may need to inflate it first and let the air out to make it more pliable and easier to inflate. You don’t need to inflate it too much, just enough to create a little weight at the bottom.
Dip the strips of paper into the mod podge and start covering the ball (coat each strip with more mod podge as you apply it to the ball, they really need to be soaked in the glue). You will need several layers of paper (at least 3).
Let it dry (which is difficult).
Once dry, paint the egg shape into a papier mache bunny in the color of your choice.
Cut two ear shapes out of cardboard. Cut the bottom of the ear in the middle (just a little bit). Add glue to one half and press the other half on top so they stick together – this will give the ear a nice solid shape.
Add details to the face and ears using a combination of black markers and pastels – these colors work great (you can also add a pom-pom for the tail). Glue the ears on and you’re done!
