Tomorrow, 14 February, is Valentine’s Day. If your child is wanting to give a cute treat to their special friend or teachers at pre-school or primary school you may be tempted to rush to the store.
Instead of spending money on flowers or chocolate, why not make something easy – and cost-effective – with your child? All you need are a few supplies to make the following butterfly lollipop craft.
You will need
- Pink craft paper
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Glitter glue
- Glitter foam self-adhesive hearts
- Lollipos
- Googly eyes
How to make it
- Fold a piece of craft paper in half and draw butterfly wings on the one side so you will have symmetrical wings. Cut out the wings.
- Cut slits for the stick of the sucker to slip through.
- Decorate the wings with glitter glue around the edges and leave to dry completely. Now stick on the glitter foam hearts.
- Slip a lollipop through the slits.
- Stick googly eyes onto the sucker.
