SPIDERS

These 8-legged critters can be found almost

everywhere from inside our homes to out

in the woods. We will explore the Garden

looking for these sometimes scary creatures,

learn why we shouldn’t be afraid, how they

are different from insects, and how spiders

help people. We will end our morning by

listening to A Very Busy Spider by Eric Carle.

MONARCHS & OTHER BUTTERFLIES

Monday, June 26, 10:30-11:45am

Learn all about our state butterfly – the

Monarch! Find out how these insects start

their lives as tiny eggs and transform from

caterpillars to winged migrators. Make your

own butterfly to take home, explore the

Garden looking for butterflies, and hear the

story Are You a Butterfly? by Judy Allen.

SIX-LEGGED FRIENDS

Monday, August 14, 10:30-11:45am

We’ll go to the prairie and look for all types

of insects – dragonflies, butterflies, beetles,

leaf bugs, stick bugs, and more. Learn why

insects are so important for our flowers.

You will make your own buzzing insect and

listen to a story that is all about insects.

BUSY BEES

Monday, August 28, 10:30-11:45am

Find out what keeps bees so busy and learn

why bees are important to our Garden. We’ll

make a bee craft, go on a bee hike, do a bee

dance and listen to a story by Eric Carle

called The Honeybee and the Robber
