Some kids are squeamish, but most are naturally curious if they can get a close-up look at an insect. Do some outdoor bug exploration with these insect study activities for kids.
Boys and girls alike will enjoy investigating insects and sharing what they discover. They may be surprised to learn that there are so many different living things right in their own backyard!
There are so many things to learn about insect life and why it is so important. Studying insects and their habits help kids gain an understanding of how insects affect our world.
Unit studies are excellent tools for incorporating what children learn about insects into their daily work.
They can journal about how bees and butterflies pollinate plants and help them grow flowers and vegetables. Drawing pictures of a fascinating insect or building one with Legos® spurs their creativity and imagination.
You can stay in your own backyard or visit a local park or preserve. With these insect activities, your child can discover a whole new world of interesting little critters God created.
