Why Bunny Footprints?
Bunny footprints add an extra layer of magic to your Easter egg hunt. They help set the stage for an adventure your little ones will remember, giving them the feeling that the Easter Bunny really did visit their house! Plus, it’s a simple, low-cost way to make the event feel special.
Whether you go for a trail leading from the door to the egg hunt area or create a full bunny adventure around the yard, the possibilities are endless. Your little adventurers will be so excited to follow the trail of footprints to find their colourful Easter eggs!
How to Create Your Easter Bunny Footprints using the Template
Option 1: Cut-Out Footprints
If you’re looking for a quick and easy solution, you can simply print the bunny footprints template (download it below), cut out the bunny paw print designs and place them around your house or yard. You can even have the footprints “lead” to where the eggs are hidden, making the hunt even more fun!
Option 2: Stencil Footprints with Flour or Glitter
Want to go the extra mile? You can cut out the footprint shapes and use them as stencils. Then, grab some flour, cocoa, baby powder, or glitter and sprinkle it through the stencil to create magical, sparkling bunny paw prints on the ground! This option is a little more messy, but certainly more exciting for the kids!

Scissors
Tape (if you’re sticking them on surfaces)
Optional: Flour, cocoa, baby powder, or glitter for creating footprints
Different Ways to Use the Easter Bunny Footprint Template:
- Create a Trail: Decide where you want to create the bunny trail—whether it’s in the house, down the hallway, or in your garden. If you’re using the cut-out method, tape the bunny footprints down as you go. If you’re using the stencil method, place the stencil on the ground and lightly sprinkle flour or glitter over it. Gently lift the stencil to reveal your bunny print!
Set the Scene: Instead of creating a whole trail, you can use the Easter bunny footprints to set the scene on Easter morning. The kids can wake up to find some bunny paw prints by the door to signal that the Easter bunny has been. Then they might find a letter explaining where the Easter egg hunt will take place, or even some clues to follow so they can find their chocolate eggs.
Decorate for Easter: The Easter Bunny footprints can also be used to decorate the house or classroom for Easter. Simply print the template, cut our the paw prints and stick them to the wall, scatter them on the table
Final Thoughts:
Creating Easter Bunny footprints is a wonderful way to bring the magic of Easter to life for your little ones. It’s a simple project with big results—transforming an ordinary Easter egg hunt into a fun-filled adventure! The best part? It’s easy, customizable, and guaranteed to bring smiles and excitement to everyone involved.
So, what are you waiting for? Get started on your bunny trail today and make this Easter one to remember!

I’m definitely trying this! It might be fun to add some glitter or chalk around the footprints to make it look like the Easter Bunny left a little ‘magic dust’ behind.
I love how something as simple as bunny footprints can completely transform the Easter egg hunt into a magical experience for kids! I’m thinking about using flour or chalk to make the prints outside for a little extra fun.
