One of my favorite signs of spring is when the ladybugs start appearing. I just know it means that the long cold winter is almost over and the days of warm sun, green grass, and playing outside are coming! And you just can't beat a summer night watching fireflies light up the sky like mini fireworks.
My boys love exploring our backyard and searching for all sorts of caterpillars and bugs. If your kids do too I have a super fun set of insect activity pages that they will love, and it's the perfect complement to our Family Dinner Book Club pick James and the Giant Peach.
Insect Activity Pages and Coloring Sheets
Kids love bugs. Insect activities are perfect for spring and summer, when they wake up from their winter naps and start getting ready for warm weather.
One of our favorite books featuring fun insect characters is James and the Giant Peach, the classic Roald Dahl story, which was later made into an Academy award nominated Disney film.
