What to do

Choose an area where it’s safe to get down on the ground and where there are interesting things to see on the ground. Get right down on your belly to get an insect’s eye view of the world. Move along slowly. What can you see, hear and smell?

Things to think about

  • How did it feel being that low to the ground?
  • Did you see, hear and smell things that you wouldn’t have if you’d been standing?
  • How do you think it feels being a small insect? How do you think their life is different to ours?
