Insect Lullabies

Today wraps up bug month.  We've explored ants, bees, ladybugs, dragonflies, and more!  Today we fell asleep to the calming sounds of insects.  The soft sounds put our kiddos right to sleep. Check out some sleeping beauties from our Infant One class.  To purchase your own insect lullaby CD click the link below:

Bug Matching

We're pretty smart cookies around here.  We know our bugs and can match them too!  Check out Preschool Two playing a bug matching game.

Bug Fossils

Bugs, bugs, bugs!  We are completing bug month by making bug fossils!  We worked with air dry clay and plastic bugs.  We first rolled and patted our clay out then stamped the bug into the clay.  The bugs made the perfect impression!  We were all so proud of our creations.
