MINIBEAST PICTURE SNAP CARDS
Expand upon children’s knowledge of minibeasts whilst playing a fun game of snap (or a memory game of ‘picking up pairs’) with this set of snap cards. The cards are made with a tab/patterned back which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the picture on the front can not be seen.

MINIBEASTS WORD MAT
‘Minibeasts’ word mat. Why not use in conjunction with our ‘Minibeast’ word cards? Includes 12 different minibeasts. Can be used as part of a display or activities. Endless discussions can be engaged in describing these creatures. For example physical attributes such as whether they have wings, armoured bodies, shells, number of legs or body sections, etc. Older children can be challenged to further contemplate ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions building on these observations. For example ‘Why do you think the butterfly has wings?’…or ‘How do you think worms move?’

MINIBEAST ACTIVITY/MOVEMENT CHALLENGE CARDS
Have great fun with your children whilst all pretending to be minibeasts with this set of 8 Minibeast Activity Challenge cards.
Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Cards could equally be shrunk down and placed on a key ring to take out on adventures or featured on an indoor or outdoor display board and referred to with everyone carrying out the activity on floor space in front. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together! For those children who are exceptionally engaged, these cards explored in sequence could even be set to music as a dance performance!
Great for physical development, descriptive language, understanding the world and turn taking.

MINIBEAST WORD CARDS
‘Minibeast’ word cards. Why not use in conjunction with our ‘Minibeast’ word mat? Includes 12 different minibeasts. Can be used as part of a display or activities. Why not hide them in a sand tray and see which minibeasts the children can uncover?
