Craft: Bug Catchers
Use 2 cut down PET soft drink bottles to make a bug catcher. Make a slit down one of the bottles and push one inside the other. Place a stick inside for the insect and decorate with stickers on the outside. (At the end of the night give each Joey a plastic insect to put inside on the stick with blutack.)
Activity: Insect Lollies
To take home – make some using jaffas, licorice, banana lollies and wrap in glad wrap (see Women’s Weekly Childrens Craft Book). Talk about three body parts of insects.
