Every night we go on a night walk. And every night we would find another creepy crawlie. One night I found a millipede. I named her Squiggley. She was very tickly when she crawled from my hand to hand.
The next dark night we found a cricket. It was as big as a ruler and related to the lobster family.
The scariest night animal I saw was a big and hairy tarantula. It had made itself a nest on a type of tree.
The best camauflaged creature was a wonderful and surprisingly strong stick insect.
There were social spiders. They were yellow which was surprising and they were as small as a pencil lead. They live in colonies of thousands and hunt together and share their food.

WOW! I READ SOMEWHERE THAT THERE ARE MORE THAN 9000000 DIFFERENT KINDS OF INSECTS THAT WE HAVE GIVEN A NAME TO SO FAR, BUT THE ONES YOU HAVE SEEN SEEM TO BE THE MOST INTERESTING! THAT CRICKET MUST HAVE BEEN AMAZING IT MUST MAKE A LOT OF NOISE WHEN IT ‘SINGS’.

That makes you much braver than me. Rosie has a stuffed tarantula in a box frame on her desk and I find that quite scary enough!

Hi Emily, You are special. Not many people can cope with all those creepy crawlies but you have done amazingly. I do think that “Squiggly” was really cute, even if all those legs were a bit “ticklish” on the hands.I never knew that Crickets were related to Lobsters, but I can see the likeness. (or is it just this type of cricket that is related to lobsters?) Keep it coming………I’m loving it all. xxx Grandpa

Oh my goodness and I thought I was being brave at forest school with the bugs. They are massive!! How brave of you to pick them up. They must feel so strange on your hand!

Congrats on your first day as a qualified Forrest School leader. Can’t wait to hear more about it.
