Why This Easter Crown Is So Cheerful
Every point has an Easter egg that kids can decorate with stripes, dots, and zigzags however they like. Little chicks on the band shine in sunny yellow. That makes every crown one of a kind, just like real decorated eggs. Glue tabs close it to fit any head.

✂️ Craft Instructions: Turn the Template into a Mask
🧰 What You Need
- Printer + heavier paper or cardstock (65–110 lb)
- Colored pencils, markers or glitter pens
- Scissors
- Glue stick or stapler
- Optional: a paper strip to make it longer
Print the template at actual size on thick paper.
Color the crown or headband and decorate it however you like.
Cut along the outer line and keep the tabs on both sides.
Measure around the head; if the band is too short, glue a paper strip between the tabs.
Overlap the tabs and glue or staple them – put it on and shine!
⚠️ Safety: eye holes, craft knives and hot glue are grown-up jobs. Don’t run or play rough while wearing a mask that limits your view – and never put elastic around the neck.
Play Ideas for Little Easter Royals
Wear your crowns on an Easter egg hunt in the yard or classroom. Race to the finish line balancing an egg or ball on a spoon. Crouch down small, then hatch out of your egg with a cheerful peep. Then try egg tapping, where two hard-boiled eggs tap together and the one that doesn't crack wins.
Fun Facts About Easter Traditions
Decorating Easter eggs is a very old tradition celebrated in many countries. In the Franconia region of Germany, people decorate village fountains with thousands of colorful eggs – these Easter fountains draw visitors from far away. A baby chick takes about 21 days to hatch from its egg. In egg tapping, two people knock hard-boiled eggs together, and the tougher egg wins. In the United States, the White House hosts a famous Easter Egg Roll on its lawn every year.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What age is this mask suitable for?
The Easter crown is made for ages 5 to 8. Kids color and cut it out themselves, and an adult helps glue the tabs and fit it to the child's head.
Will the mask fit a child’s face?
Yes – printed at actual size (100 %) on A4 or US Letter, the mask is roughly the size of a child’s face. For adults, scale it up to 110–115 % or print on A3/Tabloid.
What paper works best?
We recommend heavier cardstock around 200 gsm (about 110 lb) so the crown holds its shape. For bigger heads, add an extra paper strip to lengthen the band.
Is the download free?
Yes, all masks and coloring pages on PureSketchy are 100% free for personal use, preschools, and schools.
Is there a German version?
Yes! You can find the German version at Osterkrone.
