These are the bug crafts we did to go along with our Welcome Spring What’s in the Garden Preschool Bundle.

Welcom SpringJust in case you missed this bundle, just click on Welcome Spring link to print in PDF. Here is the link to the post.

The bug crafts can be done ahead of time. Discuss each bug and their various parts and functions as you come across them in the worksheets.

Or the crafts can be done after each bug is discussed!

Chocolate Covered Pretzels - These were so good. I made these a few weeks ago and wanted to share them. Didn’t get the chance until now. Ingredients from @walmart - Full recipe via link in bio.

I used these small Pyrex dishes to melt different colors of Candy melt. The dishes are great for storing food, heating food, mixing ingredients, etc.

Got some of these Colorful Baby Breaths from Trader Joes. So pretty. I opted to add water - as one of the sales persons mentioned that they can last a long time without water. I know how the stems of cut flowers can get when left in water and also needing feeding and constant change so I decided that ”no water” sounds good to me. This was when they were new but they’re still pretty after 2 weeks.🌼🌸
