Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cute idea It says to draw your own butterfly which my older daughter loved because she learned to cut the mirror image of butterflies at school, but for my younger son, I just printed off an image from online. Easy peasy, the hardest part was the kids didn’t want to wait for the cardboard to dry after painting it…and it took a while! Also make sure you have LOTS of yarn, it takes quite a bit.
