Paper Heart Doily Dragonfly Puppets - Kid Craft

Easy to make Valentine’s Day craft idea for kids. Use doilies and wavy popsicle sticks. Great for preschoolers!

Craft Supplies:

  • Wavy Paddle Fan Sticks
  • School Glue
  • Small Paint Brushes
  • Craft Paint
  • Small Paper Plate
  • Small Paper Heart Doilies

Directions:

  • First have children paint their wooden fan stick completely {any color they like!} This is the body of the dragonfly. Repeat for each one you want to make today.
  • Now grab TWO paper heart doilies and glue them to the center/back of the popsicle stick to represent the wings.
  • At this time, go ahead and also glue on the wiggle eyes & draw on a smile with the sharpie marker.
  • The last step is to cut out some antennas from the cardstock and adhere those to the back of your piece, with the wings.

  • Then once dry, display proudly OR use in creative imaginative play!
