🐞 Bugs, Critters & Creatures (Ages 4–6)

July 27–31 (Monday–Friday)

 

Get up close with the tiny (and not-so-tiny) creatures that call the forest home.

This week is all about slowing down, looking closely, and discovering the hidden life all around us—from the soil beneath our feet to the edges of the pond.

• Go on a bug safari

• Search for small forest creatures from ants to voles and learn about where they live

• Explore pond life through pond dipping (what might we find?)

• Look for frogs, toads, and other wetland visitors

• Build a bug hotel and mini habitats for tiny creatures

• Ask big questions like: Is a worm a bug? Who lives under logs? What makes a habitat a home?

 

Children will practice careful observation, gentle handling, and respect for living things as they discover the rich, often overlooked world of small creatures.

Curiosity leads the way as we explore, wonder, and learn together. 🌿
