Bugs!

We got messy making ladybugs and gentlemenbugs!  This was a great sensory activity for the boys!  They LOVED dipping their hands in the finger paint and squeezing it through their fingers!

This is what we did:


  1. Each boy dipped his hands in finger paint and smeared it over a paper plate!
  2. I cut out a 4 circles for the dots, a strip to differentiate the wings and a semi-circle head.
  3. The boys glued them into place.
  4. Finally, we stuck a chenille bendy thing through the head as an antennae.
This activity took about 20 minutes.  Both kiddos were able to do most of it on their own.  Each kid made 2 bugs!  Aren't they LOVELY ?
