Spring and Easter Crafts for Kids - Hen Paper Decoration
The hen is waiting patiently for all of her chicks to hatch! With parental or adult assistance, this is an easy and fun project for school aged children. It only requires basic cutting and gluing skills.

Tip: You may wish to decorate both sides of the figure if you wish to hang it into a window or freely in a room. You will then be required to double the amount of all the pieces.
