Insect Week is buzzing closer 🐞🐝🐛🦋
Help insects find shelter by building a bug hotel from twigs, pinecones, bark, and old flower pots. It’s a great hands-on craft and a lesson in biodiversity.
Set up a mini art station with pencils, markers, and paints. Ask your little ones to draw their favourite bug – whether it’s a bright ladybird or a spiky beetle.
Snuggle up with insect-themed reads like The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Superworm, or Beetle Boy. Great for learning and winding down.
Create a bingo card with different bugs (ant, dragonfly, bee, etc.) and see who can spot the most throughout the week.
Sow wildflowers, lavender, or marigolds in your garden. These can attract bees and butterflies – perfect for insect-spotting at home.
🐝 LHW hats are finished with clever in-built mosquito repellent, created to help protect little faces. Designed for your little one’s sensitive skin.
🌬 Our signature styles are crafted with smart adapting fabric lining to keep your child’s head the perfect temperature. This prevents sweaty hat hair!
However you're celebrating Insect Week, don’t forget to tag us in your bug-tastic adventures – @littlehotdogwatson. We’d love to see your little explorers in action! 🐞
