Ladybird Houses

We designed our very own Ladybird houses.
We talked about what a Ladybird needs and drew a design in our topic books.
We had to label it and explain why we had chosen specific features.

Carol let us use some wood that they had in their classroom. We painted our Ladybird houses.
All we have to do now is wait for the paint to dry so we can drill some holes into the houses for our Ladybirds to hide in.
Our Ladybird houses will be taken home and placed in a special place in our gardens.
We think the vege garden is a great place because Aphids like to nibble on the vege leaves and we know that Ladybirds LOVE eating Aphids. That means that having Ladybirds in our gardens will be a BIG help!
Check out our photos!
Cool design! perhaps it will attract Ladybirds!




Shelby's design is a Ladybug!

We drew a plan and explained our features








Our Ladybird houses will blend in with the environment! Can you spot a Ladybird?
Keep an eye out up in Nature's way for a Ladybird house. You can look but please don't touch them:)
