Easy Popsicle Stick Butterfly

If it's raining out and your little one needs something to brighten the day, these butterflies will do the trick. They are so quick and easy you'll be able to fill your house with them in no time. Don't forget to hide a few around the house to brighten everyone else's day too!

What You’ll Need

popsicle stick
construction paper
scissors
wiggly eyes (optional)
marker
pipe cleaner
glitter, glitter glue, or other embellishments (optional)

Instructions

1. Cut construction paper into the shape of butterfly wings. Try cutting a smaller shape in a different color and gluing it on top of the larger wing shape. Glue the wings to the popsicle stick.

2. Glue the wiggly eyes onto the top of the popsicle stick. If you don't have wiggly eyes, draw the eyes on with a marker.

3. Make antennae by twisting a pipe cleaner around the popsicle stick, pulling the ends of the pipe cleaner up and curling them under.
