Pom-Pom Lady Bug

Everyone likes lady bugs and this particular one just feels at home outdoors on the green plants. Kids can enjoy a lady bug of their own and will have lots of fun crafting this project using left over yarn and a few other basic craft supplies.

For this project you will need:

- red and black yarn
- 2 wiggly eyes
- craft glue
- scissors
- sturdy cardboard
- circle templates

Recommended for ages 9 and above

Instructions:

1. Follow the instructions here “How to Make a Pom-Pom” to make the head and body of the lady bug. For the head you will only need black yarn and a 4 cm ring. For the body, you will need a 5 cm ring and both black and red yarn. Try to wrap them so that the pattern looks like stripes. This will create the lady bug spots.
