BUGS


We're ready for warmer weather and some outside time. Our theme followed that line of thought and we took a look at BUGS this week.

These little creatures will be showing up soon, a herald to a new season.





Art activities included sticker bugs and disk-shaped foam. We free-handed our own ideas of bugs with paint and paper. Using our fingerprints, we created ants and added legs and antennae.



The word B-U-G was easy to spell using our big letter stamps.




















We sang songs and used our rhythm sticks at grouptime. We make a joyful noise whenever we have music time.





Facts we learned about BUGS (insects to be exact): They have three body parts, six legs, and antennae. Some move on the ground, some move in the air, and some move on the water. We listed bugs we like (ladybugs were popular)and bugs we don't (bumblebees have a bad rap).
