 Ladybug Headband Craft Template



Its Springtime!! Ladybugs are a very popular preschool/kindergarten craft. My toddler is especially fascinated by lady bugs as we find them around the house and in our backyard. This template is very simple to make. Here is some kid friendly information on ladybugs. Google has a cool application 3D AR where you can see insects and other things in real life. My toddler had fun making the ladybug move all over the place. Here is the link .As with any online links- screen first before showing the kiddos.

How to Create the Ladybug Headband

  • Trace around the template onto colored pieces of cardstock. Trace the first template with the headband onto black cardstock.

  • Trace the wings onto red cardstock. Or you can color the pieces black or red. 

  • Glue your antennae and wiggle eyes onto the ladybug’s head.

  • Then draw a smile using a white crayon or white paint pen. Glue the spots onto the wings of the ladybug. 

  • Glue the wings onto the front of the headband (on each side of the ladybug’s face). Staple the back headband onto the front headband to create the headband loop.

Sensory Play Ideas

  What is Sensory Play and Why is it so Important?

Singing the same song or playing a song for a particular activity will provide your child with stability and a sense of control. There are so many things out of a child’s control that they often resist transit...
