Extra Tips
- Turn it into a card. Let them write a memo for someone.
- Decorate this little bug in the bedroom
- Create other insects and let them distinguish them each.
- A fun way for them to learn counting is by allowing them to paint spots depending on the number requested.
- Instead of painting the spots, cut black circles and let them put the spots in the ladybug. This will help improve their motor skills.
- Create numerous ladybugs and paint them in different rainbow colors. Use the ladybug to practice them to differentiate various colors of the rainbow.
