How about what I did for my daughter a couple of years ago........
I used a strip of card to make a headband and large pieces of card to draw and cut out two hen shapes. I coloured in the wings,etc and used the stick on moving eyes. For the tail I used brightly coloured feathers from a craft shop. I stapled the bottom of the hens to the headband so they were facing the front. Then I stapled the heads together to fully hold them in place. I then stapled on small bundles of real straw for the nest. I finished it off by sticking around the band, egg shapes that my daughter had decorated.
The result was a hen laying brightly coloured easter eggs!
