Ladybug Handprint Craft

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Gather your materials: red, black, and white construction paper, scissors, a glue stick, pencil, and a black marker.

Step 2: Cut the Handprint and Body

Trace and cut out a handprint from red construction paper. This will become the ladybug’s wings.

Cut out a large rounded black body and a smaller black circle for the head.

Step 3: Make the Head

Cut out two black antennae and glue them to the top of the black circle head.

Step 4: Add the Eyes

Cut two small white circles for the eyes and glue them onto the head.

Step 5: Draw the Pupils

Use a black marker to draw pupils inside the white circles to finish the eyes.

Step 6: Add the Wings

Glue the red handprint on top of the black body, with fingers pointing downward.

Step 7: Attach the Head

Glue the head with antennae to the top of the black body, slightly behind the handprint.

Step 8: Draw the Line and Spots

Use a black marker to draw a line down the center of the red handprint to separate the wings.

Add black spots to the red handprint using the black marker to create the ladybug’s signature look.
