Cut a circle out of red construction paper—about the size of a small bowl. This will be your ladybug’s body.

Cut a small semicircle out of black paper and glue it to one end of the red circle to create the head.

Cut the red circle in half straight down the middle to make two wings. Use a glue stick to lightly attach each wing to the body, overlapping slightly in the middle so they can still “open” a little.

Cut small black circles from the black paper or use a marker to draw dots on each wing.

Glue on two googly eyes, or cut two small white paper circles and draw black dots in the center with a marker.

Use the marker to draw two curly antennae on the head—or cut thin strips of black paper, curl the ends, and glue them on for a 3D effect.
