This week we’ll be discovering lightning bugs and then making a lightning bug jar!

Please bring the following supplies:

• A clear jar or container with a lid that a grown-up has poked holes in (something like a pickle jar or peanut butter jar is perfect) OR a jar with a piece of foil or plastic wrap
• Scissors
• Grass, leaves, and other things to make the inside of the jar comfortable
• Craft supplies

If you aren’t able to gather the supplies, please feel free to join us anyway. The hands-on activity can be completed later.

Please come prepared to turn on your camera and participate.

Perfect for 1st-3rd grade, or preschool-kindergarten with an adult present to help.
