My back is hard, I crawl and I creep. I hide in the garden, not in your sleep.
Beetle
I fly all around, I’m quick and sly. I land on your lunch—oh oh!
Fly
I sing with my legs on warm, quiet nights. You’ll hear me outside, under moonlight.
Cricket
I'm red with black dots, I’m tiny and sweet. In gardens and flowers, I’m fun to meet!
Ladybug
I was once a caterpillar, but now I can fly. With colorful wings, I dance in the sky.
Butterfly
I hop and I jump, I leap in the air. My song is loud—just listen out there!
Grasshopper
I zoom by water, I fly very fast. With shiny wings, I’m a flying blast!
Dragonfly
I’m not an insect, but I crawl just right. With eight long legs, I spin webs tight.
Spider
I’m tiny and strong, I work all day long. I carry big things—what insect sings no song?
Ant
I go on leaves, I’m soft and slow. One day I’ll fly—just wait and go!
Caterpillar
I glow in the dark, I blink like a star. Look in the night—I’m never far!
Firefly
I flutter at night, not in the day. I love bright lights—please don’t look away!
Moth
I look like a bee but don’t make honey. If you scare me, I don’t think it’s funny!
Wasp
I buzz in your ear, I bite when I land. I’m tiny and sneaky—catch me if you can!
Mosquito
I fly with a buzz and live in a hive. I make sweet honey.
Bee
I scurry and hide when you turn on the light. I’m not very loved, I give kids a fright!
Cockroach
