Instructions
  1. Antennae: Wrap a pipe cleaner around a headband so that the two ends stick up at an angle.

  2. Bedtime attire: A robe works best as a base for the legs and a pillowcase can be used as a candy collector.

  3. Legs and sign: Use our free template to draw insect legs on craft foam. Cut out the forms and place duct tape on the ends closest to the body. Tape the legs behind the robe's collar.

    For the sign, write a message on poster board and hang it around your child's neck with ribbon.
