Step 1: Make your fingerprints

Hard boil some eggs and leave them to cool.

If you don’t want to use hard boiled eggs you can buy plastic or polystyrene eggs at craft shops to decorate too.

Dip your thumb in some paint and print it on the egg.

For bunnies make two prints, one large thumbprint and one smaller fingerprint above it.

For chicks make one large yellow fingerprint in yellow or gold paint.
