What You'll Need
STEP 1
Print our butterfly template onto construction paper and cut it out.
STEP 2
Fold the butterfly in half and have your children paint a design on only ONE half of the butterfly. For young children it works best if you fold the unpainted side under the side they are painting to eliminate confusion.
STEP 3
While the paint is still wet, fold the unpainted side of the butterfly over the painted side and gently push the two together.
STEP 4
Unfold and let dry.
