Lady bug release. Tuesday. April first.
PLEASE NOTE: NO LADY BUGS WERE HARMED IN THIS ADVENTURE.
(the kids only used eggs with air holes. so they could have air)
and we do own bug boxes, but they weren't at the park with us at the time, however the eggs were in the van,so being the out of the box thinkers that they are. they made it work.
SEE the day bugs in the eggs.
it was the kids idea to bring them home. they know that Ladybugs eat aphids.
and wanted to feed them.

Eggs hold lady bugs fabulously!
strategically placing the lady bugs on the rose bush.
They even got to watch them eat aphids.

My kids love to find ladybugs too. I saw some cute bug cages at Target and Walmart that would be fun for them to put the ladybugs in.
