We have a Passion Flower vine on our back fence, bumble bees, honey bees & butterflies LOVE it. Birdy & Sambo love to catch bugs and play w/ them, ladybugs especially. I bought them a cheap butterfly net/bug catching kit from walgreens the other day (ONLY $3.99 much cheaper than Target! btw). They've been out in the back yard catching bugs ever since. Today was a great catch!
I have them sketch what they catch & write about it. It took awhile for them to catch on to what I meant by 'sketch' it. Initially they were just drawing pictures w/ bugs in them. lol
Don't you just love little dirty hands?
