Butterfly Valentine

Materials Needed:

• Popsicle Stick
• Glue
• Construction Paper
• Marker
• Pipe Cleaner
• Tape

Instructions:

Cut 2 hearts out or red paper, about as tall and wide as the popsicle stick. Trim off the bottom of each heart as shown in figure 1. Lay the 2 hearts down so the bottom edges are slightly overlapping - figure 2. Glue the hearts together on the bottom edges, and then glue the popsicle stick on the hearts as shown in figure 3.

     

Use the marker to make eyes and a mouth. You can also write a Valentine's day message on the wings of the butterfly. Cut two 2 inch pieces from a pipe cleaner. Tape them on the back of the popsicle sticks to be the butterfly's antenna - figure 4.
