One of the
stars of the Butterflies are Blooming Exhibit is the exotic Blue
Morpho. This large, shiny blue butterfly is usually found in the
forests of Central and South America. But you can find it on your
finger, too!
1.
Print this page and carefully cut out the Morpho. Color it to
match the marking of the Blue Morpho (or design your own butterfly)
.
2.
Punch two holes on the circles on its body.
3.
Take a 4-inch pipe cleaner and bend it into a "U" shape.
Push the ends up through the holes, leaving enough room underneath
for your index finger.
4.
Twist the ends sticking out the top, to create the antennae. Gently
wave your hand up and down, and your Blue will flutter gracefully
on your finger.
