The Rainbow Fish is one of our favorite books. It's a sweet story about a beautiful fish who learns how to make friends. We recently discovered another great Rainbow Fish book by Marcus Pfister, Rainbow Fish Discovers the Deep Sea. Print a fish coloring page to create your own rainbow fish. We had so much fun decorating our fish with markers, glitter, and aluminum foil.
Let's learn about creepy crawly insects! Insects have 6 legs, 3 body parts, and 2 antennae. Grab your crayons and choose an insect coloring page!
Coloring Pages are a fun way to teach about the life cycle of a butterfly.
A butterfly lays its egg on the underside of a leaf. We used buttons in shades of green and yellow for our leaf. We added a sparkly little pom pom for our egg.
When the egg hatches a caterpillar emerges. A caterpillar eats and eats! Try adding some real leaves to your coloring page. As soon as a caterpillar is done growing they form themselves into a pupa or chrysalis. A hole punch from Michael's ($2.39) created perfect circles for our caterpillars.
When the caterpillar is done changing and forming a butterfly emerges from the pupa. We purchased these 8 x10 foam glitter sticker sheets from Michael's ($7.99). Cutting small triangles develops fine motor skills. Arranging the triangles fosters puzzle and logic development.
There is a lot of reptile talk at my house this week. A lizard lady came to my son's preschool today. It was so much fun I was inspired to create a reptile coloring page. Colored sand and googly eyes made our reptiles extra cute.
