| Prepare the main wings before giving the
craft to the children.
1. Cut out the wing template and place
the straight edge against fold of paper. Cut out and also cut out the central/shaded
parts of the wings.
2. Snip down two sides of an A4 ordinary
office plastic wallet and open out.
3. Using the pva glue open out the folded
wing and glue the outer frame to the wallet. Repeat for as many wings needed!
4. Allow to dry and then cut out the outside
edge of wings only.
1. Talk to the children about the types
of flowers you have brought in (and that you were allowed to pick them!)
Have whole flowers for them to see.
2. Gently pull off the petals and cut
up small leaves to make a collage onto the faerie body. What do they smell
like and do the children have flowers where they live?
3. Spread pva glue over the clear parts
of the wings and sprinkle with glitter.
4. Glue wing to the back of the Faerie
body.
To turn Faerie into a puppet tape a lolly
stick or similar to the back.
