apple Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Hi Sophiemarie how lovely to have some money to spend We are holding a sponsored event in a couple of weeks to raise money to enhance our KUW provision. We want to make a 'bug world'. We thought we might buy a unit from ikea in the children's section. It's the wooden step one with shelving for deep and shallow trays- much cheaper than some education catalogues. On these we will put stick insect houses and giant african land snails. We want to purchase some lovely wooden magnifying glasses we have seen and some more investigating resources to help equip it, including books and posters on mini-beasts. I thought about buying a camouflage net to hang over the top like a jungle canopy... just to make more of an impact in this area. there is so much out there on the market that sometimes its difficult to make sure the spending is worth it. I know in the past that I have seen things in catalogues that look fab and then when they arrive they were useless. e.g a set of number cutters for playdough that looked big but on arrival they were weeny anyway hope this has helped, have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
