Discovering The Inner Light
Complimentary Materials
Dear Parents and Educators,
We are delighted to share this collection of activities inspired by L.B. Discovering the Inner Light.
Each activity is thoughtfully designed to foster emotional intelligence, resilience, and kindness. Whether used at home, in the classroom, or as part of a group workshop, these exercises offer children the opportunity to explore their feelings, build confidence, and practice being present.
We hope these activities support your child’s growth and spark deeper conversations and shared moments of connection.
Thank you for being a guiding presence as children learn to shine their unique Light into the world.
What Are Lightning Bugs?
Lightning bugs, also called fireflies, are small insects that light up at night. They are actually beetles, not flies! They use a special chemical reaction in their bodies to glow, creating tiny lights in the dark.
Why Do They Glow?
Lightning bugs glow because of a process called bioluminescence. They make their own light by mixing chemicals inside their bodies. This glowing helps them:
Talk to Each Other – Fireflies use their blinking lights to send messages and find mates.
Stay Safe – Some fireflies flash to warn predators that they taste bad.
Where Can You Find Them?
Fireflies love warm, humid places like meadows, forests, and gardens.
They often come out in the summer after sunset when the air is cool.
Fun Facts
Can You Catch a Firefly?
Yes! If you want to catch a firefly, do it gently:
Use your hands or a jar with holes in the lid so they can breathe. Watch them glow, and then let them go back into nature.
Reflection Questions
These questions are designed to gently help your child open up and make meaningful connections between the story’s messages and their own life experiences.
