Ingredients
Paper egg cartons
Yarn or string
Googly eyes (or small bottle caps as a substitute)
Bottle caps
Tacky craft glue

Instructions
Turn one egg carton cup upside down to create the bug’s body. An adult may need to cut the egg carton into individual sections first.
Let your child decorate it using any recyclable items they like.
Add eyes using googly eyes or small caps.
Poke small holes in the sides and insert twigs or rolled paper for legs.
Glue on yarn for hair or antennas.
Add finishing touches like a bottle cap hat or extra decorations.
