Your Easter decorations are about to get a whole lot better with this FREE downloadable illustrated garland, thanks to Evie Barrow! With a super cute bunny at one end and a carrot at the other, Evie says that the bunny’s mission is to find an ‘x’ which ultimately leads him to his favourite carrot. Luckily, the path he follows is guided by arrows, along which he leaves decorated eggs in return for his treat. In the attachment you’ll find both a coloured version and a black and white version that can be coloured in with the kids.
