Crafts
Toddlers
Pencil Critters
We have a die cut in the shape of a caterpillar with holes through each of its segments so that you can thread a pencil through it. We added some googly eyes and extra pencils I had laying around. 






Preschool
Bug Buddies
Each child was given a baggie with a leaf shape cut out of green construction paper and two pompons, one big and one small. I set up the craft tables with Elmer's glue, googly eyes, and sequins. Their instructions were to make their bug how they wanted to. They came up with some pretty interesting creations.
