Crochet Easter Bags
Easter chick bags are perfect for a group of kids you want to crochet gifts for or as an addition to an Easter basket.
These bags are super easy to make and doesn’t take long! The “base” of the bag is made with simple stitches and the wings, eyes, and beak are attached separately.
You can also come up with other Easter or spring themed bags by adding different embellishments!
I also used the base of the bag for Halloween themed bags and a Reindeer bag for Christmas. Get creative!
What to Put in the Easter Chick Bags
The most obvious thing to put in these little goodie bags are candy! Mix and match colorful candies for a fun surprise inside.
Non-food items can be put in these bags as well. At my local Dollar Tree, there are many options for non-food prizes and treats.
Stickers, erasers, little notebooks, bubbles, small packs of chalk, and small toys like bouncy balls and figurines are all great options to put in this goodie bag as well!
