BIG ADVENTURES FOR LITTLE EXPLORERS
Make A bug hotel from recycled items
You can find creepy crawlies anywhere, head out into your garden, woods or nature reserve and see what you can find!
This is a great way to recycle plastic bottles or tin cans…
1. Gather your materials – empty and cleaned plastic bottle or food tins – check for sharp edges. Bamboo canes make excellent hollow nests, cut them to similar lengths to fit into the bottle. Other materials could include leaves, pine cones, bark, twigs, moss and grass. 2. Cut your bottle down to size – you can get two sections out of a 2L bottle / remove both ends of your food can. 3. If you are going to hang your hotel, loop some garden twine or string through the bottle or can before filling it nice and full.
Keep a look out for your visitors!
What did the firefly say to the other firefly? You glow, girl.
