A butterfly sees you through its 12,000 eyes!!

How many eyes?

You might need a magnifying glass to look at an insect's eyes!

Bugs have all different types of eyes, not like ours. For example an ant has two eyes, but they also have smaller "eye"s in the top of their heads, to look at light and their world around them.

A bee has five eyes.

How Many Body Parts?

Centipede:
A centipede has little chopped up body parts that are squished together.

Ant:
Like a lot of bugs, an ant has three body parts.
The parts are head, thorax and abdomen. Ants have a hard excokeleton which means their bones are on the outside of their body.

Spider:
Unlike insects, spiders only have two main body parts. A head and thorax (stuck together) and an abdomen (stomach).
