Farmer Pete Coloring Pages

It has been an exciting couple of weeks. We have had a few readings of our book ‘Farmer Pete has Stinky Feet’ at schools and at our local library. The kids have been amazing and so much fun throughout the process. They have asked a ton of adorable questions and made me glow with the cutest and sweetest comments. We set up a craft table for the kids at the reading event at the library.  I also made a couple of coloring pages taken from my book. They all dove in and enjoyed both the craft and the coloring pages. I wanted to share those coloring pages with all of you. The kiddos really got a kick out of these. I hope that you do too.

Wax Paper Dragonfly Craft

You can make this wax paper dragonfly as a hanging craft or glue it to a piece of paper, either way the result is lovely.

We love crafting with wax paper. It’s transparency and delicate texture make a wonderful canvas for painting and for stained glass tissue paper projects. Because of its transparent and delicate nature, it also makes it the perfect material for making insect wings. Dragonflies are one of our favorite insects. With summer here, they have been out in full force in our yard. They are so beautiful and my daughter and I love to watch them. These gorgeous creatures inspired our latest project. We have provided a printable template for your convenience.
