Dragonfly Magnets - Easy Kid Craft!

Sometimes I just need to see the idea before I'll have the motivation to gather the supplies and actually encourage the kids to make something.  Recently, we saw this idea to make a Dragonfly magnet and it was the perfect quick craft for both girls. 

Here's what you need -

• Black construction paper (or any color, really....for the wings)
• A craft stick - I got one that was wider at one end, like a wooden flat spoon
• Glue
• 2 small magnets
• Marker or colored pencil/to decorate
• Translucent paper (option)  

Glue a piece of translucent paper on the widest end of your stick

Decorate the face for your bug on the opposite end

Trace or cut out wings for your dragonfly and decorate

Glue the wings to the middle of your craft stick

Stick two magnets on the back of the dragonfly

Wait an hour for it to dry and then....

let it fly!

Happy Monday!
