The past weekend brought snow and plenty of craft time.  We pulled out the stamp pads and went crazy coming up with silly bugs to doodle, improvising a bit on which part of our finger to stamp to get just the right shape.  Daisy struggles to break things down into smaller shapes to draw them (e.g. a dress is a continuous outline, and it might not quite end where it started), and this was a nice exercise in looking at things as smaller components.   The caterpillar took fingertips for nice round body segments (Daisy added feet, antennae and face).

Butterflies are the entire side of a pinky with prints of the whole thumb pad.  You can add a nice round fingertip head if you like.

Shoes notwithstanding, eight legs make a spider!

…and mommy’s big fat fingerprint makes the mommy ladybug, while itsy-bitsy kid fingerprints stamp up a whole family of eensy-weensy baby ladybugs!
