Another easy craft for children. Young children will need help with cutting.

Materials:

foam sheets or scraps in various colors

markers

scissors

string

a stick

hole punch

1. Have your child draw insects on the foam pieces. Be sure that the insects are big enough for hole punching.

2. The insects should now be cut out.

3. Punch a hole at the top of each insect.

4. Have your child color each insect.

5. Cut string into varying lengths.

6. Tie one end of each piece of string to one insect, then tie the other end of the string to the stick.

7. Tie one end of another piece of string to the top - middle of the branch, and make a loop for hanging at the other end of the string.

8. Hang the mobile where you child can see it each day.
