Lady Bug

I promised Amirul last night to do our rock painting today. He was so excited and keep asking me since early in the morning 'ibu, bila nak buat?' so many time. We finally started our craft project, after lunch. I let them  chose the rocks.

The lady bugs are supposed to look like this......

Materials needed for  making this lady bug are smooth round/oval rock, red and black acrylic paint, wiggle eyes, black marker and white craft glue. 

Draw by using pencil. Never use marker because the line

still can be seen after we paint the rock.

Amirul in action. Paint the lady bug's body with red and black for the head. Let the paint dry and glue the wiggle eyes.  Since the rocks are small, my kids painted the rocks for 15 minutes. (Arman took only 5 minutes!!) hehehehe

Amirul was a bit disappointed because we did not have black marker to do the dots. He used black acrylic with brush. He said 'tu la abang punya lady bug comot'.

Arman was happy with his lady bug ;)
