How are bugs different to other animals? Become an entomologist and learn to identify different groups of bugs. Find out some of the amazing things bugs can do!
Did you know that the museum has a huge collection of bugs? In this session children will be introduced to the job of an entomologist and learn how to identify different groups of bugs by looking for similarities. With song, stories, and games we explore the amazing things bugs can do and the important role they play in the environment.
This live program has been developed for early learners and based on the museum’s kindergarten incursion program. Program runs for 30 to 40 minutes including question time.
What do you need to participate?
You will need to have access to a large TV, smart TV, or data projector that can be connected to a device with the internet so that you can join via Microsoft Teams. A laptop or iPad screen will be too small to view the presentation as a group.
