Thing of the Week - Mini Beasts and Bug Hunting

As part of the launch of 50 Things in Southwark, we are focusing on 1 of the 50 activities in this amazing app. Next is ‘Mini Beasts and Bug Hunting’.

Let’s go on a mini beast hunt and explore the fascinating creatures that live around us! Encouraging your child to engage with these creatures offers a great learning opportunity. Many children love discovering mini beasts in the natural environment. Look under rocks, inside logs and cracks in tree bark, or even walls.

For more information on this activity including how to do it, the benefits, top tips and resources, download the free 50 Things app from Google Play or the Apple Store.
