Craft Time!

The kids worked on some crafts, like painting rocks to look like lady bugs, or decorating crosses with beads! They had a lot of fun, and here is what you can do to do the same thing.

Lady-Bug Rocks
What you will need:

( Makes 4 )

4 regular size rocks, see in pictures below.

Paint, not water colors, real paint.

Paint brushes.

( You can find these at craft stores )  Adhesive Goggly eyes. If you can't find adhesive ones, just take a hot glue gun a hot glue gun it onto the rock when it is time.

A black permanent Sharpie marker.

What you need to do 
First, take your paint brush and dip it in the paint color you want. Paint over the rock, and let it dry. When it is dry, take the black sharpie, and draw a line down the middle, and fill in the front with all black. Then draw  black dots around the lady bug. Take the goggly eyes, and stick them where the eyes should go.











You can put them in your backyard, in the garden, or on your front porch step. You can also just draw words on the painted rock, it is great for kids!
