How to make Additional or Extra Butterflies for the Elefun Game
If your toddler loves Elefun as much as mine does, you have no doubt noticed a decrease in the number of butterflies available to be caught! Follow these incredibly easy steps to create more colorful and fun butterflies so the fun can continue.
Step One: Buy Cheap Lei
Pick up a cheap lei at your favorite party place that looks like the photo attached. You can also use silk flowers as long as the petals look the same as those shown below.
Step Two: Cut Up Petals
Disassemble your lei. Cut each flower so that there are two sections that contain two petals and one sole petal. The sections with two petals will float and swirl as gracefully as the original butterflies.
