This Easter Bunny Trap is a fun project that you and your family can have fun building and crafting together on Easter weekend right before the Easter bunny comes to hide those eggs.
Supplies
-Cardboard/ boxes
-String
-Pulley
-wheel
-Tape
-Box cutter
-Scissors
-Hot glue gun and glue
-Sticks
Step One:
Gather all materials needed and prepare to start building.
Step Two:
Take all tape,stickers,and other stuff off of the first box (preferably the biggest box you have) and hot glue together and cut a hole at the bottom of the box.
(After cutting out the piece of cardboard set it aside and save it you will use this in a later step)
Step Three:
After cutting a hole in the box you now have a hole for where your elevator is going to go. You now need to make your lower level of your trap where your elevator is going to drop down into.
You will also need to cut two little wedges out and glue them to the top side of the hole.
Step Four:
After getting your lower level built you should now cut a door way into the side where the rabbit can go into the caged area.
Step Five:
Now that you have the top and bottom level made now you are going to work on your pulley/ elevator system.
With that hole you cut at the bottom of the first level you are now going to want to take the hot glue gun and glue three flaps onto the bottom of it so when your platform is going up and down it has a guide.
Step Six:
Find where your elevator is and poke a hole where you think the string would best go.
After you get this done it is time to make the wheel where your system is going run from basically.
Step Seven:
Get two sticks, or whatever you want to use and glue them down but make sure the middle stick can reach to each side.
After gluing down your legs you can now but your wheel on, you might need a third middle leg it is up to you.
Step Eight:
You can now start on your little elevator platform.
What you are going to want to do is poke four holes into each side of the piece of cardboard you cut out in the beginning.
Step Nine:
Now that you have your four holes it’s now up to you to put the strings into the holes and tie the strings together to make one whole string so it is easier to maneuver.
Step Ten:
Now that you got your platform done for your elevator you can now put it all together so you will you need you take the string and put it through the hole that you made at the top of the box.
After you get it through the hole get it over the wheel, after you do this you will need to cut out a little door.
Step Eleven:
After you get your door cut out attach it to the other end of the string that is cut and has nothing to at the end of it.
Now that you have the pulley/ Elevator system put together you can now start putting everything together.
Step Twelve:
Now that we are piecing everything together put your top and bottom levels together and glue them together.
You can now build your cage part of your Bunny Trap.
Step Thirteen:
You can now attach the cage part.
Final Step:
The last and final stop is to add a ramp and an entryway to the front of your bunny trap.
