Ladybug · Ladybird Beetle
Preschool Lesson Plan Printable Activities
The ladybug is a flying insect, therefore, it has six legs. It is a small, round beetle that is generally red or orange with black spots. Ladybugs eat aphids and other insects that are harmful to plants and crops.
Let's have fun making an easy and fun craft of a ladybug, alongside other fun activities.
Online Jigsaw Puzzle: Ladybug

facts. Problem solving skills.

Bible Activity
Suggestion:
This is also a wonderful insect to include in Bible related activities
as it was possibly named after an important and blessed lady -- Mary, the
mother of Jesus.
Idea: Make the craft and use it to tell a Bible Story
related to Mary, such as The
Annunciation (great for Mother's Day too!) from the point of
view a tiny ladybug as a witness of the event. Children love
when another character, such as a cute animal tells the
story.
