Last week we talked about the beautiful side by talking about art in nature. But nature is not always beautiful. This week, Lucy introduces a less glamorous subject, although equally intriguing, by talking about Creepy Crawlies! Hear us out! Don’t turn us off yet! This is a really amazing subject, we promise!
We start with a list about why you should let and even ENCOURAGE children to play with bugs and insects. Children learn scientific principles, practice environmental stewardship, develop compassion, and work on preliteracy skills. We talk about a few activities for varying levels of comfort and then we provide some tips for adults (especially those who are a little squeamish about these things, haha!)
