Decorate the top and sides of a recycled tissue box with Crayola® Washable Markers. If necessary, cover the box with construction paper first and then decorate. Cut out the bottom of the box with Crayola Scissors.

With Crayola Colored Pencils, trace the bottom of the box twice on white construction paper. Add a little space on two ends for tabs. Cut out both pieces. On one piece, use your imagination to create a spring or Easter picture. Fold up the tabs on the picture. Cover the tabs with glue from a Crayola Glue Stick. Place the picture inside the box, near the original opening, so the picture faces out the bottom. Attach the tabs to the box.

On the other piece of construction paper, draw a large egg with Crayola Colored Pencils. Cut out the egg, and cut a small, round hole in its center. Decorate the egg with intricate designs and symbols of Easter using markers and Crayola Glitter Glue. Dry.
