A cute summer craft to do with the kids

Hi again

I just came across this cute summer craft that the kids can do.

I thought it would be cute to roll out some newsprint on the picnic table and let them do it outside.

Ladybug prints
These striking prints can make great wrapping paper so hold on to your little one's handiwork for special occasions. Oh and in case you hadn't guessed, this one can be a little messy so you might want to take suitable precautions!You will need

• a potato

• a carrot

• red acrylic paint

• black acrylic paint

• paper

Directions

Chop a potato in half, lengthways, to form an oval-shaped print.

Then cut 5 cm off the end of a long thin carrot to make a dot print.

Squeeze paint onto a tray and use the vegetables to make ladybug prints.
