Easy Easter Cross

Mar 04 '02

The Bottom Line great Easter Craft

I made this cross with first graders the results were great.

Materials:
15 sugar cubes
White glue

Process:

Take 9 cubes and line them up with 3 rows of 3 so that you have a base for you’re cross glue these rows together with the white glue. Make sure you glue each side of the middle cubes so the whole base is glued together.

Set this aside to dry it will take about 15 minutes

For the cross shape you line up four cubes and glue the last two cubes are glued to the third cube from the bottom for the sides of the cross.
Let this part dry for the same amount of time.

After the pieces is dry glue the cross to the base.
It should be glued to the middle block of the base. Let it dry.

This cross looks wonderful and if placed on a shelf will last for a few months. When some of the parents saw this they thought it looked like marble. I think all age children would enjoy this craft but under 7 a child would need quite a bit of assistance with the gluing.
