10 Unique Easter Bonnet Ideas for Your Easter Bonnet Parade

Easter means warmer weather, the sounds of birds chirping outside your window at six in the morning and making delightful Easter crafts with your children. Let’s start with best part about Easter in Moncton: The Easter Bonnet Parade at your Wee College campus!

Every year in April, our house would be a tornado of craft supplies. I wanted to do it all: spring crafts, decorate eggs, go on a chocolate egg hunt, and paint everything – including our dog.

There’s something about sitting around the table with others planning, laughing, and building. I always admired her over-the-top approach, and she always admired my few scribbles on cardboard as we pieced them together. Creating an Easter bonnet has remained one of my fondest memories as a child, and I hope you’ll enjoy an afternoon of crafting an Easter bonnet too.

Get started with these unique Easter bonnet ideas to make with your children. All of them are guaranteed to create an afternoon full of smiles!
