Craft: Loop Ladybug
This week's craft is based on the picture at left.  The kids colored a strip of cardstock as well as a circle head.  The strip was glued into a loop.  The head was glued onto the loop as well as sequins as spots.  Half of a pipe cleaner was threaded through holes in the head to make the antennae.

Extension Activities:
- Practice color recognition by having your child go through the house pointing out the different items that are red or pink.
- Have fun with ice painting.  Freeze colored water in ice trays with a popsicle stick stuck in them.  Kids can then "paint" with the frozen water.  Colors can be mixed as the ice starts to melt.
