What Makes Ladybirds So Special?
Ladybirds are more than just pretty insects—they play an important role in nature! Here are a few fun facts about these lovely creatures to share with your kids as they colour:

- Colorful Camouflage: Their bright red wings and black spots aren’t just for looks—they actually help scare off predators by warning them that ladybirds don’t taste good.
- Lucky Bugs: In many cultures, ladybirds are considered good luck, and it’s said that spotting one will bring happiness and prosperity!
