Download the butterfly template, print it, and cut out the pieces.

Begin by gluing the eyes next to the eyelashes.

Next, glue the body stripes horizontally across the butterfly’s body. Trim off any excess paper.

Take the antennae and glue them to the top and back of the butterfly's head.

Trace your child's hand onto one colored piece of paper two times and then a second colored piece of paper two more times. Cut out the handprints. Now, place the handprints with the thumbs on the bottom and the finger facing outward.

Slightly overlap the bottom of the prints and glue them together. Now repeat with the other set of handprints.

Arrange the glued handprints so they are slightly overlapping, with one color on top and the other color underneath. Glue them together in the center to form wings.

Finish by gluing the body to the center of the hand print wings.
