Insect Theme Preschool Activities - Fantastic Fun & Learning

Bugs are everywhere! These small but mighty creatures may seem pesky, yet many insects have very important jobs. Preschoolers love to learn about all of the creepy crawlies around them. From metamorphosis, to pollination, and even learning that they outnumber the animal population, there are so many fun facts to learn about insects. Here are some fabulous resources for planning your preschool insect theme. Most of these insect theme preschool activities activities are designed for kids ages 3 through 5, but many can be modified for younger and older kids as well.

WHY IT’S FUN

Kids love to get eye level with new creatures and explore their worlds. The world of insects allows for just that as they are found on the ground, trees, shrubs, flowers, and in the air. They’re fun to search for, catch, and identify too!

WHEN TO TEACH AN INSECT THEME

An insect theme is fun to explore as spring approaches and throughout the season. This is when new growth is sprouting up, the weather is warming, and insects are busy buzzing, flying, and working. A preschool bug theme can also be fun well into summer when you can spot lightning bugs.

TEACHING TIPS & MAJOR CONCEPTS KIDS WILL LEARN

If you’re planning a preschool insect theme there are many possibilities for incorporating meaningful early learning skills.

These are just some of the concepts kids can learn about during an insect theme:

• insect classification: six legs and two wings, head, thorax, and abdomen

Insects for children - interesting facts about insects for preschoolers

The world of insects on our planet is amazing and diverse. In total, there are about 3 million species of insects, and so far only 1 million have been studied! These unusual creatures amaze even adults with their appearance and lifestyle. And children from a very young age are attracted by insects swarming in the grass. They can watch them for a long time. If your child has shown such interest, then you can start introducing him to insects.

Praying mantis

Praying mantises got their name from their unusual appearance. They fold their forelimbs as if in prayer. Praying mantises are known for their fearlessness. They attack the enemy without hesitation. Praying mantis cannot be called large, they reach 10-12 cm in length. But at the moment of threat, they do not run away, but remain in place and try to look larger and more impressive. Praying mantis spread their wings, spread their front legs and reach up. In this position, they sway eerily to the sides. This strategy works even with much larger animals. They prefer not to mess with a creature that looks menacing and does not run away.

Praying mantises feed on insects, but can also eat lizards, frogs and even small snakes. They even eat poisonous spiders and ladybugs. For humans, praying mantises are safe. But if they get angry, they can bite painfully. Praying mantis eggs are protected by special capsules. They are not afraid of low temperatures, or even pesticides.

Butterfly

These graceful fluttering creatures always attract attention. Butterfly wings are very beautiful and children like them. And it's so easy to catch them by the wings when they sit on the flowers. But you need to explain to the children that this cannot be done. Butterfly wings are covered with special scales that are easily erased when touched with fingers. Butterflies with such damage to their wings will not be able to fly and will die.

Butterflies come in a variety of sizes, from tiny 2mm wingspans to 28cm giants. Their wings are beautifully painted in a variety of colors and patterns. Butterflies have an unusual curling proboscis with which they feed. Their food is plant nectar and fruit juice.

Children will be very interested to learn about the life cycle of butterflies. A caterpillar appears from the egg, which does not at all look like a future bright beauty. The caterpillar feeds on plants and can eat them in large quantities. When its time comes, the caterpillar turns into a motionless chrysalis, inside which, for a certain time, amazing transformations take place - the caterpillar becomes a butterfly. And soon comes out of the chrysalis house. This process can be observed with children. Bring home a caterpillar, place it in a transparent vessel with enough food, and you will soon be able to see it becoming a chrysalis and then a butterfly.

Ant

These insects are very industrious, friendly and organized. They are always in a hurry and running somewhere. It is very interesting for children to observe the life of an anthill in nature. Ants are very useful insects. They clean the nature from garbage. One ant is stronger than an elephant. Of course, he will not be able to lift the load that the elephant lifts. But an ant can lift a weight that is 10 times its own weight. And an elephant cannot even lift a load equal to its own weight.

Ants are excellent builders. Their nests are elaborate houses with apartments, well-designed ventilation, pantries, bedrooms, children's rooms, trash cans and toilets. In their homes, ants strictly maintain cleanliness. The inlets and outlets serve to supply air inside. They are guarded by soldier ants.

Right under the roof of the anthill there is a spacious room that is the first to heat up under the sun's rays. There the ants bask in the spring. In the depths of the anthill there is a bedroom in which the ants spend the winter. There are separate pantries for grain and meat food. There is also a "cowshed" with aphids. Ants use these insects by eating the sweet substance they secrete. They protect and take care of aphids, carry them away to the anthill for the winter, and in the spring they take them out to new succulent plants.

There is a special “royal” room in the anthill for the ant queen. She is engaged in laying up to 1000-1500 eggs daily. Worker ants take care of her.

Ladybug

Everyone knows the cute red bug with black dots. Surely every child in the summer planted a ladybug on his hand and said a rhyme: “Ladybug, fly to the sky, your children are there.” Children will be surprised when they learn that this bug is actually a poisonous predator. Ladybugs destroy aphids - dangerous garden pests. They are even specially distributed for this purpose in the fields and gardens.

The ladybug's red coloration signals to birds and other enemies that it is poisonous. When attacked, it injects a sharp-smelling liquid from its paws. This smell warns predators of danger. Ladybugs also play dead to save their lives.

Bee

Hard-working bees give a person delicious and healthy honey. Their hairy body is covered with villi and has a striped color. With the help of a long proboscis, bees suck nectar from plants. They process it and turn it into honey. Bees store honey in combs. In the cold season, it serves as food for them. To ensure a full winter, the bees work tirelessly all winter and summer.

Bees live in large hive families of several thousand insects. Each member of the family has their own responsibilities. The "Queen" lays her eggs, builders build combs, workers collect nectar, take care of the larvae and guard the hive. Bees build their houses from wax. They make honeycombs out of it with cells in the form of regular hexagons. The cells are interconnected and all the same size, as if the bees used a ruler.

People get honey in a way that does not harm the bees. They take only a small part of the honey from the hive. Previously, bees were only wild. To get honey, a person had to look for bee houses in the forest. It is difficult and long. Then they came up with the idea of ​​cutting down trees with hollows inhabited by bees, and placing them in a convenient place. And after that, people began to build special houses for bees - beehives - and populate them there. A bee city of beehives is called an apiary.

Bees have a sting and they bite very painfully. But always it is done only for protection. No need to be afraid of bees, but treat them with care and respect.

Wasp

Wasps are similar to bees, but they are completely different insects. They also love sweets, feed on the nectar of flowers, fruits. But they don't know how to make honey. Sensing the sweet, the wasps immediately flock. Therefore, when relaxing in nature, you need to be careful. The wasp sting is very painful. The insect stings if you accidentally press down or step on it.

Houses hang their wasps on tree branches or in attics. They make them out of paper. Wasps scrape wood with their jaws, mixing it with their saliva. From these lumps they make thin strips of paper, from which they build multi-layered, durable and warm houses. The female wasp lays her eggs in them. And the rest of the wasps look after the larvae emerging from them. In no case should you touch the housing of wasps. Insects immediately rush to their defense and attack.

Grasshopper

It is not easy to spot a green grasshopper in the grass. You can only hear his loud chirping. Grasshoppers have a slender body, long antennae and powerful legs with which they can jump very high. Their ears are on their feet. And grasshoppers “sing” using their wings. They rub them one against the other, like a bow on the strings of a violin, and a loud chirring is obtained. Harmless at first glance, grasshoppers are predators. They prey on butterflies, flies, insect larvae. Grasshoppers are saved from their enemies with the help of protective coloring and dexterity. In summer, females hide their eggs in the ground. In the spring, larvae will appear from them, which will soon become grasshoppers.

Dragonfly

Dragonflies are very ancient insects. They appeared about 350 million years ago. Swift and fast, they are created by nature in order to hunt and attack. They fly incredibly fast and are able to change the direction of their movement with lightning speed. This can often be seen in the summer. Dragonflies sit down somewhere very rarely. They spend almost their entire lives in flight, their paws are generally not adapted for walking. And they fly at the speed of a car - up to 140 km / h! Dragonflies can control two pairs of their wings independently. They can fly forward, backward, sideways and hover in place. Dragonflies just have huge eyes, which consist of 28 thousand individual eyes. These insects are very voracious. In just an hour, they can catch and eat up to 40 flies!

Mosquito

These biting flying insects are familiar to every child. Not a single summer is complete without the itchy bite marks that cause a lot of anxiety to children. Interestingly, only female mosquitoes bite. Males are absolutely harmless and feed on plant nectar. During a bite, a female mosquito injects saliva into our skin containing special substances that slow down blood clotting. It is she who causes redness, swelling, itching, and in some - a severe allergic reaction.

The squeak of mosquitoes is created by the rattling of their wings. Mosquitoes live only 1-2 months. During this period, females drink blood 5-7 times more than their own weight, and lay up to 300 eggs. Eggs develop in stagnant water. They hatch into larvae that breathe air. Therefore, they float on the surface of the water. The larvae then turn into pupae, from which mosquitoes emerge.

Firefly

The flashes of these bugs on a summer night give a feeling of magic and wonder. The glow is formed by a special chemical reaction in the body of a firefly. Their light is red-yellow and green shades, of different duration and brightness. And they can glow in different ways. The glow can be continuous, intermittent, pulsating, flashes. Glow in different species, males, females, or both. Fireflies are carnivores and prey on other insects.

May beetle

In spring, in May, large beetles appear in the green forest. Their backs are like smooth brown acorns. They are called May beetles or Khrushchev. They live only one month, during which they lay eggs. Crabs are dangerous pests. Their larvae live in the ground, large, with powerful jaws. They feed on plant roots. The larvae live in the ground for 3-4 years and during this time they eat everything around. Where there are many larvae, the plants dry up and die. The larva turns into a pupa, and in spring - into an adult beetle. He breaks his way and flies upstairs to freedom.

Stick insect

Amazing and unusual insects. They live mainly in the tropics and are exotic for our places. They really look like sticks in appearance and coloration. But there are species that look like pieces of bark, leaves. They even belong to a special class - ghosts. The sizes of stick insects can be from 2 cm to 35 cm in length. These insects are ideally adapted for camouflage. Even moving, they slowly sway to the sides, like branches swaying in the wind. And at the slightest danger, they freeze in place. A frozen stick insect cannot be distinguished from the surrounding nature at all. Predators do not perceive it as prey and leave. Stick insects feed on plant leaves, fruits, and berries.

In a cruel world where all insects fight for their lives, stick insects have chosen their path. They are not aggressive, they do not have sharp teeth or claws, they do not know how to run fast. Their only defense is to be invisible and lead a measured life in the surrounding vegetation.

Draw children's attention to the world around, to insects that exist in nature. And such as stick insects, butterflies, large beetles can be seen in special zoos with insects - insectariums. Watching them is very interesting and informative. Children learn to understand and protect nature, respect each, even the smallest insect. After all, every insect is needed on our planet for some reason.
