Make a butterfly ring

One of the stars of the Foremost's Butterflies are Blooming exhibit is the exotic Blue Morpho. This large, shiny blue butterfly is usually found in the
forests of Central and South America. But you can find it on your finger, too!

1. Print this page and carefully cut out the Blue Morpho. Color it to match the marking of the Blue Morpho (or design your own butterfly).

2. Punch two holes on the yellow circles on its body.

3. Take a 4-inch pipe cleaner and bend it into a "U" shape. Push the ends up through the holes, leaving enough room underneath for your index finger.

4. Twist the ends sticking out the top, to create the antennae. Gently wave your hand up and down, and your Blue will flutter gracefully on your finger.
