They can store their letter circles and leaf in a container for repeating the activity later. Also, instead of giving each child a leaf, you could cut out one large posterboard leaf and place it in the Language Center. You can count the small ones, the large ones, how many on one wing, and so on. Provide bottles of honey for children to drizzle designs onto large very clean paper plates. Provide each child with a little blob of peanut butter too for dipping their apple sticks in.
Children create their own version of bee hives from their playdoh on very clean paper plates.
You and the children will love the very special surprise at the end of the book. Lazy Ladybug's favorite thing to do is sleep. She decides she wants to find a new place to take her naps, but because she's so lazy and not good at flying, she decides to hitch a ride on other animals.
