1. Gently sweep a net backwards and forwards over some long grass. Carefully turn the net inside out and see what you have caught. 2. Lift up a log and have a look at the creatures living underneath. Carefully put the log back down when you have finished so you don’t squash the bugs! 3. Lay out some white paper or a sheet under a tree. Gently shake some of the tree branches and look at the creatures that fall.
