We don’t have cicadas here. But my son recently asked me to buy him a reptile guide book of the area, and he’s been studying all about snakes. Not my favorite creatures. But they are fascinating.

My daughter has always loved finding the shells and sticking them to our shirts. Last year we were lucky enough to go out one evening and find several of the larvae crawling toward a tree and climbing up. In just a sort time they were breaking out of the shells, wings unfolding and turning into the adult cicada. It was the most amazing experience to watch this transformation unfold, right before my eyes in my own backyard!

LOVE this! We used to hunt the “shells” too. They cling to cloth really well, so we would run around sticking them to each other’s shirts!
