Crafty Critters - Beautiful Butterflies


Every month momstown has a theme that all of the chapters incorporate into our events for the month. May's educational curriculum theme was Butterflies and Bullfrogs. The kids were very excited to see the tables set up with feathers, bingo dabbers and colourful beads to create their one of a kind butterfly.




The infants had their own special art piece to create. They were given some paint and a bath sponge and then let loose to see what they could come up with. A few of them decided to get creative by picking up the paint bowls and mixing them together. The outcome was stunning! We weren't able to cut out the butterfly since the paint was still wet but the moms were given the pipe cleaner antenna's and google eyes to complete the project at home.





Check out some of the other crafts that were completed this month by our sister chapters momstown Newmarket and Aurora, momstown Central Alberta and momstown Guelph!
