A gift for our garden


Thanks to Ms. Ozawa we now have a praying mantis egg sac! Ask your child how this will help our garden. How many praying mantises does he/she think will emerge?

We gathered soil, sticks, moss, leaves, and insects to prepare a habitat for our future praying mantises.




Look to the top to see the egg sac hanging. Why do we hang the egg sac?
If we take care of our egg sac, this is what we expect to see in a few weeks...

And, if we care for the babies...
we will have praying mantises to help rid our garden of pesky pests!
