Make a pompon by wrapping yarn around floppy disk (or heavy
cardboard) as least 100 times. Cut a 6" piece of yarn and slide it under wrapped
yarn. Tie tightly into a double knot. Turn floppy over and cut completely through yarn on
this side. Turn yarn blob sideways and smooth down strands.
Ask on adult to slice off the bottom of the Styrofoam ball
so it stands on end. Cover the top and sides of the ball with tacky glue. Separate the
strands of the pompon to fit the Styrofoam egg up inside. Press pompon into place. Arrange
yarn.
Cut pipe cleaners in half. Poke through yarn and into
Styrofoam ball. Bend four for legs. Gently curl the two for antennae. Glue two white pompoms for eyes, and two pink pompoms for antennae tips. Punch holes out of craft foam and
glue on all around bug. Glue two black holes on pompom for pupils on the eyes.
