Spring Jelly Bean Mosaic
To make a butterfly, you will need: 8 1/2″ x 11″ (22 x 28 cm) white cardstock; pen; black shoestring licorice, jelly beans, and other small candies; a container of frosting.
Instructions: Trace, copy, or print from the Internet (www.lds.org) the butterfly pattern on this page onto white cardstock. Arrange pieces of candy on the butterfly. When you have created a butterfly you like, “glue” each piece in place with frosting. You might want to do this activity in family home evening. Then discuss with your family why butterflies, newborn animals, and budding leaves and flowers remind each of you of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
