We love Eric Carle's book, The Grouchy Ladybug, so we wanted to continue the fun and bring a character to life! That's how we came up with this Grouchy Ladybug craft for kids to make. When they get done with the story, they can make either the grouchy ladybug or the friendly ladybug with this craft. It's great for preschoolers, kindergarten and elementary children."]

Instructions
- Download the ladybug template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
- Begin by gluing the spots all over the ladybug’s body. Trim off any paper that hangs off the sides.
- Place the eyes on the ladybug’s head, above the mouth with the outer sides hanging off the sides of the head.
- Next, glue the antennae to the back and top of the ladybug’s head.
- Position the head in the middle and bottom of the ladybug’s body, with half the ladybug’s head hanging off the bottom.
- Now, take 3 of the legs and glue them along one side of the back and bottom of the body. Repeat with the other 3 legs on the opposite side of the body.
- Finish up by gluing the ladybug to the middle of the leaf.
