How to make the craft
To carry out the craft, you will first have to take the DINA-4 size sheets that you have chosen and fold them as you see in the images. Cut it as you see in the images to get squares the size you can see. Take two squares of each chosen color.
Fold all papers as you see in the images. Once you have them, you will have to join them with a staple so that they are well fastened at all times and that it does not come apart when you go to put the pipe cleaner in its place.
Once you have the stapled papers, you will have the butterfly wings as you see in the images. At this time you will have to take the pipe cleaner and put it in such a way that it looks good as if it were the body of the butterfly, as you see in the image. You can go as many laps as necessary to the pipe cleaner so that in this way it is more consistent with the wings that you have previously made.
You will already have your butterfly finished with colored paper and pipe cleaners. Children will be very proud to have made this cute and easy craft!
