Bug Hat Craft

Crafts

My little guy is all about the crafts lately! He has really taken to “school” and constantly sounds out words to determine what letter it starts with. To help out with this, each day we make some sort of craft to go along with the letter of the day.

This particular day we were working on C’s. It was a beautiful day, so we grabbed our craft supplies and headed to the backyard to make this caterpillar bug hat. 
Supplies needed:
2 pieces of construction paper
scissors
glue
sharpie
How to make the caterpillar bug hat:
  1. Draw 4 circles and 2 small rectangles on 1 piece of construction paper.
  2. Cut out circles and rectangles.
  3. With other piece of construction paper, cut in half and glue together. This will be used as the headband.
  4. Glue on 4 circles to headband. Draw a smiley face on first circle.
  5. Then curl the 2 rectangles and glue on face as antennas.
Isn’t this so cute? He wore his creation around the house the rest of the afternoon!

    My daughter is all about caterpillars right now; probably because they seem to be everywhere! I can't wait to make this with her this weekend.

    This bug hat is so cute! I love that your little one was able to help with this too. I'll have to keep it in mind when our nephews are over.

    Now that the weather is finally getting nicer and we're outside more, the kids are fascinated with all the bugs we're coming across. They'd love this.

Instagram post 2194073468493255362_188511613 Ever found a family activity that is SO much fun, but completely horrible at? That’s us and ice skating! 
Despite our lack of skills in the rink, we had a blast skating outdoors at #christmasinthebranch @discoverfarmersbranch

Our home is decked out in Christmas decor, but fall isn’t ready to make its departure yet. What’s the weather like where you live?

Have you been to the Fort Worth Stockyards? đŸ“· @hmcotton7

The town has several gorgeous historic buildings, a living history museum, amazing restaurants and a fantastic state park. Be sure to click the link in my bio for a fun city guide to @visitcleburne
