Step 2: Make the Wings, Head, and Antennae
Cut a circle from red construction paper, draw small dots on it with a marker, then cut it in half.
Attach each half to the popsicle stick at an angle so the wings open at the bottom.
Glue a small black circle above the wings for the head, add white paper eyes shaded with a marker, and finish with short pieces of fuzzy wire for antennae.
All done!
And there you have your popsicle stick ladybug puppet!
