What is it about ladybugs that are so cute and friendly to kids? My kids love finding and picking up ladybugs. They think it’s their luckiest day when they find these spotted red creatures! Are your kids fascinated by ladybugs like mine?
If they are, look no further than this fun and engaging craft activity to keep your kids entertained! It’s also an inexpensive art project for kids. In this post, we’ll guide you through creating an adorable paper ladybug craft that will surely bring a smile to your child’s face.
It’s a breeze to create with our printable template available in three vibrant colors—red, orange, and pink—this craft is not only easy to make but also visually appealing. Kids will love fluttering the ladybug wings open and close. So magical!
Note: we were inspired to make this ladybug craft from a video we saw from Mr. Creator online. However, that didn’t come with a template and seemed complicated so we created our own printable to help guide you!
How do you make a paper ladybug craft?
You’ll need our printable template, some glue (we recommend paper stick glue) and some googly eyes (optional). If you don’t have googly eyes no worries you can simply draw them on or use bits of white and black scrap paper to make your own eyes!
The folding can get tricky so we definitely recommend watching the video on this post. Make sure you pause at key steps to get it just right. Once you do you’ll be amazed at how easy and mesmerizing this adorable ladybug is! Kids will have so much fun fluttering the wings back and forth!
