Spring is the perfect season to do an insect study. The toddlers have painted, colored, and created insect crafts. We have read stories and sang songs about butterflies and bumblebees. We have also played some fun games that reinforce counting and color recognition.
We have been focusing on bugs, spiders, insects and creepy crawlers this month. The toddlers have sorted insects by color and shape. We have also read lots of stories, sang songs, and did puppet activities involving bugs. Our class created insect crowns to practice fine motor skills with stickers. We read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, then reacted the story using magnets, and made a craft practicing patterns. A sensory bin filled with insects and magnifying glasses have kept our toddlers engaged. We have been buggin’ out this month!
