Teaching Thursdays: Little Chicks Pail for Easter Treats



One of the things we love about Easter, are all the adorable kids crafts to make. From Easter eggs to Easter baskets there are so many to choose from. Today we want to share with you this little chicks pail. Kirsten Jones created this project using FolkArt acrylic paints. Burlap is used in this project, and when painting on this type of fabric FolkArt acrylic paint is a great option. This pail will definitely come in handy when your kids are on their Easter egg hunt. All the supplies you will need are below, along with their instructions.
