Supplies:
- Many colors of construction paper, oak tag, or gift wrap
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Yarn or string
- Glue stick
- A sturdy paper plate
- Markers, crayons, or paint
- Stapler or tape
 | Draw a spiral on a paper plate. Cut along the line. |  |
 | Decorate the paper plate using markers, crayons, or paint. |
 | Using green construction paper, draw a leaf and cut it out. Either draw tiny butterfly eggs on it or glue on tiny paper circles (either cut them out or use a hole punch to make some). A cluster of butterfly eggs are usually laid on the underside of a leaf; the eggs are white or yellow or greenish, and are circular to oval. |
 | Draw and cut out a caterpillar (the egg hatches into a caterpillar, which spends its entire time eating leaves). Decorate it. |
 | Draw and cut out a pupa (the stage during which the caterpillar makes a protective case around itself and turns into a butterfly). Decorate it. |
 | To make butterfly wings, fold a small piece of paper in half, and draw half a butterfly along the fold line. |
 |  | Using dark paper, make a body for your butterfly (it's basically a long oval with a circular head). Glue the body to the wings and decorate your butterfly. |  |
| Staple or tape the stages in the butterfly's life cycle to string and then to the paper plate. Attach another short length of string to the plate; it will be used to hang the mobile up. You now have a great buttefly life cycle mobile. |
