Insect Mania


Recently there has been a strong interest in insects within the centre. Earlier on in the week Elijah, Laker and Eneri were intrigued to find a large number of spiders under a rock they had overturned. It was not long before the boys were joined by many of their friends and lots of conversation developed relating to spiders including what they eat, where they live and if they bite. Most of the week this interest has remained with many of the children initiating spider and insect hunts and Isaac bringing to KIDSPACE a cockroach he had found . It is wonderful to listen to the conversations held between children and amazing to discover how much knowledge they have on a diverse range of topics and willingly share this with their peers.
