Pop-up Eggs

This morning I had a fun craft for the kids to do. They were easy to make and Jackson and Makenna had a fun time making these pop-up eggs that are now hanging from our fans.
In case you would like to do this with your family here are simplified instructions.
Cut out 3 identical egg shapes from card stock.
Crease the eggs by folding them in half legthwise and opening them back up.
Cut colored card stock strips of varying sizes.
Accordion-fold the strips.
Attach the ends of several strips along the edge of an egg using double-sided tape(glue stick might also work)
When you have covered all 3 eggs, use double-sided tape to join their backs together.
Use a string or ribbon and tape in the middle of the egg, so you can hang it.
