These chicks and eggs make great favors and decorations.

Chicks and eggs are 3 1/4” high X 2” wide, just about the right size to fit into an egg carton.

The chicks can be taken out of their shells, or the shells can be attached to them.

The instructions are friendly and finish-as-you-go

Safe for children 3 and over, although they can be made safe for all ages.

When made according to the instructions, these toys are machine washable.
