Today we started a week of crafts to do with the life cycle of the butterfly.We started with the butterfly larvae hatching from the egg. Materials needed include paper plates, watercolour paint, brad fasteners, googly eyes, round paper circles, hole punch, scissors and glue stick.
The children had fun just painting (note to self - have a week of a variety of painting). One little guy was thrilled that he could poke a hole in into the paint block.
After painting you need to cut the paper plate in half, punch a hole in two of the corners and put in the brad fastener.
Then glue the round paper circle on the inside of the plate. Add on googly eyes and any face you want.
I'm a hungry, hungry caterpillar.
