Hi it’s Mrs Bunce with another activity to make at home. Look forward to seeing all yours stay safe all😊
Create your own butterfly puppet!
You will need:

- pipe cleaners
- 1 lolly pop stick
- glue
- scissors
- gems for decoration

- Draw the shape of a butterfly onto your card then cut your card into the shape shown above.
2. Fold your strips of paper in half and glue the halves together.
3. Start by sticking the folded strips around the edge of the butterfly’s wings. Add another layer using a different paper design.
4. Continue until you are close to the middle/body of your butterfly.
5. Use the gems or colourful pens to decorate your butterfly’s body.
6. Curl the pipe cleaners into the spirals and then stick them to the back of your butterfly as shown below.
