I saw this being done at the local museum a while back, and adults and kids of all ages were all really enjoying it.
 |
| Draw (or trace) an outline of half a butterfly, with a dashed fold line down the centre. |
 |
| Fold the paper down the fold line, and cut around the butterfly outline |
 |
| Punch a hole in the centre of the fold line |
 |
| Cut shapes from coloured paper and glue them on to decorate your butterfly. You could also use pens, paint, glitter, stickers, etc. |
 |
| Take a chenille stick and twist it to give a finger-sized hole |
 |
| Thread the legs of the chenille stick through the hole in the centre of the butterfly. The finger loop should be on the plain side of the butterfly. |
 |
| At the head end of the butterfly, fold the chenille stick over the edge of the paper |
 |
| Top side |
 |
| Bottom side |
 |
| Ready to fly! |
