British Nature Activity Day

Our Home Ed group ran an activity day on British Nature.

We got to look at how spiders build their webs

and build a giant web.

They were taught to make some fishing baits (they were served a local trout for lunch that one of the kids had previously caught)

and to identify what insects the bait represents.

Learnt about local butterflies and build a balancing butterfly, 

looked at British flowers  

and built a bee hotel.

They spent the afternoon planting a bee and butterfly friendly garden : )
