3D Life Cycle of a Butterfly Craft

Our 3D butterfly life cycle craft gives your students a chance to explore the life cycle of this gorgeous insect in 3D.

It’s easy to assemble and can be done in one crafting sitting or you can space it out and do a stage at a time, while learning about that particular stage.

This butterfly craft comes both as a black and white template that kids can color in all by themselves or as a precolored craft template that is ready to go.

We recommend printing on heavier print paper / cardstock. Lables that kids can use to mark each stage of the butterfly life cycle are also included – butterfly, caterpillar (or larva), chrysalis (or pupa) and eggs.

Make a wonderful model diorama with your kids.

Butterfly Movable Paper Doll Template

Flutter in the air with our butterfly movable paper doll template.

This butterfly craft paper doll is pretty easy to assemble – just print it on heavier print paper (construction paper), or laminate. Use split pins to secure the wings on the butterfly’s body – this will help those wings move. Split pins are also known as paper fasteners and brads and can be purchased in craft stores, office supply stores and “dollar store” type stores that offer office supplies.

Once the paper fasteners are in place, string a thread through the holes for the thread, tie the thread and pull – your butterfly will flutter it’s wings.
