With the kids natural curiosity of insects growing during this time of year, I thought it was the perfect time to gather together some bug crafts and learning activities to try with the kids.
Here are some of my favorites I found online from some wonderful kid bloggers. I think you’ll find all kinds of bug inspiration in this collection of 30 insect and bug crafts and activities for kids!
