Students at Discovery Isle Preschool Release Ladybugs for Earth Day
Students celebrate Earth Day and protecting the environment by releasing thousands of beneficial bugs into their schoolyard
Students at Discovery Isle Preschool in La Costa-San Marcos recently bugged out in celebration of Earth Day as they released thousands of ladybugs throughout the schoolyard and back into the environment on plants, flowers and trees. Students were dressed for the occasion in the likeness of ladybugs, wearing handmade ladybug hats.
Leading up to Earth Day, students learned that ladybugs serve as a natural pesticide by feeding on insects that could otherwise harm the health of gardens, trees and shrubs. Discovery Isle teaches the importance of community and exploring nature at an early age.
