I wasn't very good about doing organized, regular learning activities with Cyrena over the summer. I needed a break after teaching preschool. But I tried to set up a few here and there for her. This was one.
Summers in Arizona bring BUGS, BUGS and more BUGS. We see a lot of bugs in the bathroom and I've explained to Cyrena that they are thirsty and like to be close to water. So when I dug out these rubber bugs (I purchased them at the $ store a few years ago) I knew I could set up a fun and easy activity for her.
Each bug has a # written on it. Her job was to give the bugs that many 'drops of water' which were really flat floral marbles. She enjoyed this activity and it was easy to set up and clean up.

I am definitely going to use that one! You are so creative! (Look, after all these years, I am STILL getting teaching ideas from you!) :)
Whoa, this is so cool and nasty at the same time. I love it!
wow, you're such a good mommy! Does Midnight Club on the Xbox count as educational?
GREAT!! I love ideas, you should start teacher idea posts. I bet you have LOTS.
Fun idea! I may have to steal this one! Hannah loves to count and is so curious about BUGS!
You look amazing...I love the pic of you and Cyrena!
Well you know exactly what will keep her attention, Logan probably would be making the bugs fight bad guys :)
Cute idea - anything to keep them busy and learning at the same time is what I like!
So creative and fun! Can I send my kids down the street to your house?? They could definatley benefit from a few fun activities like that!
So cute, I love that idea!!
