What to do:
Step 1
Gather together all the things that you need to make the Firefly.
Step 2
Take the white craft foam and draw two eyes on it. Make sure the eyes are together so when you cut them out they are in one piece. Draw some dots in the middle with a black pen. Now draw two wings. Carefully cut out the eyes and wings but remember scissors are sharp.
Step 3
Take the black piece of craft foam and draw some antennae. Cut these out, again remembering scissors are sharp.
Step 4
Using a piece of string tape it to your plastic bottle. Take the antennae and stick it to the bottle top, making sure the top is still able to twist off. Now stick the eyes to the bottle by looping a piece of sticky tape so it is sticky on both sides.
Step 5
Attach the wings in the same way with sticky tape. Take the glow stick and bend it until you hear it snap - it will then begin to glow. Then give it a shake. Take the bottle top off and put the glow stick in the bottle. Then put the lid back on the bottle. This is a bit tricky so you may need to ask an adult to help. Now you can hang it up by attaching some string to the bottle. You can make as many as you like!
This should take about 45 mins
You will need:
- Empty plastic bottle
- Some white and black craft foam
- Some scissors
- Some sticky tape
- Some string
- A black pen
- Some pencils
- A glow stick (you can get this from a toy shop)
Remember to ask aGrown-up for help.
