I was a little bummed out yesterday because I was all ready to make Jelly with the girls, and found out that I was out of lemon juice. So, I had to come up with a quick backup craft, and thanks to my wonderful hubby, we came up with these cute little caterpillars. They were a great toddler crafts, and very easy for the girls to make on their own.
I know we did something similar to these on January 1st, but those were painted dragons, these are in fact different :-p
needed items:
egg carton
glue
pom poms
pipe cleaner
googly eyes
Mike and I cut the egg holders out of the carton then the girls were able to do the rest of the craft almost completely alone. They each had a bottle of glue and got to put a dot of glue on top of 5 of the 6 egg cups and then pick 5 pom poms to put on top. for the head, Mike and I poked 2 holes into the sides of the egg cup and the girls got to make antennas with pipe cleaners. Then, 2 dots of glue and 2 googly eyes on the front, and we were done! They are super cute, and now they are looking forward to making butterflies in a few days. (hint hint hint) But first- JELLY! lol
