The free membership printable this week is Ladybug Number Pick and Cover for number recognition and review. I printed everything on cardstock paper ... cut them out and laminated them.

I set the number mat out along with the loose number squares and cover-up circles.  You can use a variety of items such as pom poms or playdough for the cover-ups.  I have included numbers 0-20 and 0-30 mats.

In this activity the children pick a number card and cover up the same number on the ladybug mat.  Play continues until all numbers have been covered.

You can grab the patterns for free until Sunday June 11th ... after that they will only be available in the member's section which is also where I have added the monster letter match.

Paper Plate Ladybug

Paper Plate Ladybug Craft For Preschool and Kindergarten
We made paper plate ladybugs this week and they turned out super cute.  We did this project over a two day period to make sure we had enough time for the paint to dry.

To make the lady you will need red paint ... glue ... scissors ... black construction paper ... wiggles eyes ... and paper plates.  We used the thicker chinette brand for our paper plates.

The first step is to paint the back of the paper plates red. You can do this by using a paint and paint brush or a paint dauber.  After we painted the plates we let them dry for the rest of the day.

We cut head shapes out of black construction paper and glued them on to the bottom of the paper plates.

The next step was to glue wiggle eyes on the heads.  If you do not have wiggle eyes a different color of construction paper such as yellow or blue cut into small circles will work fine.

We cut circle shapes out of black construction paper and glue them on to the painted paper plate.  You can put as many or as little spots on the ladybugs as you want.

We cut black construction paper into 3-4 inch lengths and folded them back and forth (accordion style) for the legs.  We glued three on each side of the paper plate.

We hung our ladybugs up around the room.  The children got lots of fine motor practice through the use of scissors and gluing pieces together.

ladybug alphabet and number match also added to the member's section
The free membership printable this week is ladybug math. This is a great activity for number recognition as well as fine motor development. I printed the patterns on cardstock paper ... cut them out ... and then laminated them.

I set the ladybugs out along with black pony beads for the children to use as counters.  If you do not have pony beads you can also use playdough that has been rolled into small balls.

In this activity the children count out and put the same number of pony beads on the ladybug that is indicated on the leaf. You can grab the patterns for free until Sunday June 12th ... after that they will only be available in the member's section which is also where I have added ladybug alphabet and number matching.

Ladybug Color Match

Ladybug Color Match For Toddlers and Preschool
We are starting our ladybug theme next week and I made a color match that could be done using a muffin tin in one of our outdoor centers.  
Picture
I made twelve color circles ... each a different color...  and put them in the bottom of a muffin tin tray. I ran the colored circles through my xyron sticker maker so they would stick to the muffin tin.  Double sided tape or tape that has been rolled up also works well.
Ladybug Color Match For Toddlers and Preschool
I will set the muffin tin out with the colored circles in the bottom and put the colored ladybugs next to the muffin tin.  I made two different kinds of ladybugs ... one full color and one with a color circle on a white body.  You can chose what kind you would like to use. I will be using both sets for the children to match.
Picture
The children will put the ladybugs in the muffin tin section with the same color. For younger children you may only want to make one or two sets of the ladybugs as too many can be somewhat overwhelming when there are twelve colors. 

You can download the patterns here and see a video of this activity below:
