Here’s what you need:

Container (bag, box, or jar)
Jelly Beans
Printable Poem
Paper and / or Cardstock
Glue Stick
Ribbon or Stapler

This is how you put them together:

You can use bags, jars, or even cute boxes for these treats.

Cutting and Trimming the Paper and Cardstock:

Print off your Easter Jelly Bean Prayer Poem printable
Cut out the poem (I used decorative scissors).
Using a paper cutter, cut the cardstock in half vertically.
Take each vertical piece, and cut in half horizontially. (This will be the size you use for bags).
If making tags for jars or boxes, you can cut each piece in half again.

For Bags:

Trim cardstock with decorative scissors (if desired). Make sure the cardstock is longer than the poem so you have room to fold it to fit over the bag.
Glue the poem to the cardstock (again, leaving blank space at the top of the cardstock).
Fill bag with jelly beans (be sure all colors mentioned in the poem are present).
Fold the top of the cardstock to fit over bag.
Staple cardstock to the bag.

For Jars or Boxes:

Trim the cardstock with decorative scissors (if desired).
Glue the poem to the cardstock.
Punch a hole in the corner of the tag.
Run ribbons through the hole.
Fill the jar or box with jelly beans (be sure all colors mentioned in the poem are present).
Tie the tag to the box or jar.
