Looking for some fun summer science to share with your toddler, preschool, kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and third grade student. These free Life Cycle of a Ladybug Worksheets will help kids learn about ladybugs as they watch them grown and observe them in nature as a fun summer activity for kids.
The warm weather brings bugs and insects and while they are creepy in my eyes, my kids love bugs. Especially my boys; they spend their days following and rescuing ants. My son traps flies he finds in the house and releases them outside. Spiders get left alone since they help catch other bugs. This time of the year is a great time to explore the backyard to see what other little creatures you can find.
If you have a garden, there are plenty pill bugs and earthworms to investigate. Our favorite is the ladybug, it’s the least ickiest, at least in my eyes. They don’t bite or hurt you so they’re a favorite bug to follow around. Science worksheets are a great way to keep the learning going when you’re indoors.
I know my kids always come up with the best questions when we’re outdoors and I don’t always have the answer to them. When we’re inside we can spend our time looking up facts and answer questions I wasn’t able to earlier.
