What You’ll Need
- Sheet of Construction Paper
Any color you’d like your butterfly wings to be! - Popsicle Stick
- One Pipe Cleaner
- Pencil
- Crayons
- Glue and/or Tape
- Safety Scissors
What To Do
- Trace your handprints on your construction paper
- Cut out your handprints!
If you do not have safety scissors, make sure a grownup helps you! - Color in your popsicle stick with whatever colors you’d like – we chose purple and dark red!
- Draw two eyes and a smile on your popsicle stick
- Using tape or glue, secure your handprints to the back of the popsicle stick
- Cut your pipe cleaner in half
If you do not have safety scissors, make sure a grownup helps you! - Twirl the two pieces of pipe cleaner around your finger to make a twirl at the top!
- Glue or tape both pieces of pipe cleaner to the top of the butterfly’s head.
And now you have your handprint butterfly!
