SPL's Blog

As a result of reading this book about how different things grow (thanks Nan!), SPL had the question about where ladybugs lay their eggs (the book takes the reader through how different organisms grow:  from frogs to strawberries, butterflies to snails to kittens, the main character Oscar (a kitten himself) finds out how living things begin, why they eat, and how they grow.). One of the pages had a ladybug on it and it was the only animal pictured that wasn’t fully described re. its eggs. Hence SPL’s question.

Grandma went to the computer and found some great sites for him to look at but since we ran out of time yesterday, we looked @ the websites this morning (Grandma left them open on the computer — she had to go home to TX today).

And then later this morning, John and I found him sitting at the dining room table with this book open (thanks Nan!). When we asked him what he was doing, he said “looking up where ladybug lay their eggs.”

And he was in the insect section and actually found the ladybug info (pictures of course 🙂

Thanks Grandma and Nan for the inspiration!
