What are some insect activities for kids?

Kids can color worksheets, do crafts and even make recipes that resemble insects. These activities can be a chance to help children gain knowledge of bugs, or they can simply be for fun.

An easy craft idea is making party hats with construction paper and string. Kids can make any type of bug they choose to decorate the hat. Another easy idea is to use paper plates and construction paper to make a lady bug. Some recipe ideas are chocolate bar bugs, marshmallow spiders, spider cakes and spider cookies. The more inventive and colorful the recipe, the more fun it will be. To make ants on a log, cut stalks of celery, spread peanut butter in the groove and sprinkle it with raisins.
