It should take us the weekend to do the life cycle between all the other activities going on.<br />Thanks for such inspiration...as always,<br />jenniferjennifer everettnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8180014130232534034.post-83113258208827001492009-07-23T13:55:18.445-04:002009-07-23T13:55:18.445-04:00We made these all the time when I ran summer camps...We made these all the time when I ran summer camps at the Children's Museum. They are even better if you buy those pipecleaners that are like bumps separated by straight parts. You then cut one section and bend it in half to make antennae and clip it into the mouth of the clip. <br /><br />You can also make the rest of the life cycle. Crumpled up paper eggs glued to a cut out green paper leaf. For the caterpillar cut out three bumps of a styro egg carton and draw a face on it and add pipe cleaner legs. Then wrap it in pillow stuffing for the cocoon part of the life cycle. Then of course the adult moth is last. I say moth because a butterfly would necessitate a hard chrysalis instead of a cocoon, and that's more difficult!

Easy and I have the supplies. I'm always searching for art projects too. What do you do when 'collaging with fabric scraps?'
