Egg holder template:

How to make:

1. First of all print off the egg holder template. Position the biggest shape – the front half of the dinosaur – onto the cardboard tube and draw around it with a pencil. Then turn the tube around and line up the second largest shape – the back half of the dinosaur. Draw around it as before.

2. Carefully cut out the dinosaur’s body with a pair of scissors – you may need to ask an adult to help with this. Finally, using some of the leftover card that is folded in half, draw around the last and smallest shape – which will be the dinosaur's head – and cut it out.

3. Paint the head and body with red and yellow paint, and leave it to dry.

4. Paint some yellow stripes on the dinosaur's tail and feet, and then add some toenails. Leave them to dry.

5. Fold a small flap on the neck of the dinosaur and glue the head in place. Then add some wiggle eyes, and again, leave to dry.

6. Take the black pen and draw some spots on the dinosaur's body, tail, and head.

7. Finally, pop a wrapped Easter egg inside the opening!
