We made bug homes for our outdoor critters. As we read various books such as Little Miss Spider, On Beyond Bugs, and All About Insects by Tish Rabe. The children came to realize that these outdoor critters are special and have families just like us. They have homes, eat, sleep, and are loved. When creating her bug home, Mia said " I put these bugs [stickers] so they could see other bugs".
Drew, Mia, and Zack, and friends tried very hard to catch an ant, but it got away. Drew and Zack decided to look on the brick wall, and there was a little hole where the ant crawled through. Drew said: " The bug was going to bed in the morning, and plays at night." This certainly made sense since this particular bug was NOT cooperating and playing with these human friends who wanted to play with him. Surely that meant that they can only play at night when we are not around.
