Mosquitoes are Minnesota’s favorite insect, but let’s celebrate others with insect art projects!

Paint a wet nighttime watercolor, sprinkle salt on the surface and watch the firefly dots appear!
Roll out different sized clay coils for an entire family of worms.
Create brightly colored beetles with sidewalk chalk on a very wet sidewalk!
Construct an art colony with tape and lots of cardboard tubes and don’t forget to add black marker ants.
