My Living World Safari-Nature Explorer Bug Catcher Set for Kids LW003 Educational Science Kits


Bug SafaiNick Baker Bug Safari

Most people believe that to go on a safari you actually need to go to Africa and track big game like lions and rhinos. The thing is, you don’t really need to travel that far. In fact, you can go on safari in your back garden. You probably won’t come across too many giraffe or zebra, but there are millions of fantastic creatures waiting to be discovered right outside your back door. This kit is all about having fun finding and identifying them and discovering what makes them tick.

To help you, we provide proper naturalist’s tools; we tell you how to use them to observe creatures safely (for them and you) and we also show you some of the most common types of bugs that are found in gardens, parks and the countryside… the rest is up to you – go and explore and find out what wonderful creatures lurk in the undergrowth. We really hope you have great fun with this kit, and that it gives you a greater understanding of some of the fascinating creatures that share our world!

    Great little kit. It has everything a little minibeast hunter would need. Just remember to release your mini beasts because the container has no air holes! My 3 year old has loved studying creatures from the garden without having to be afraid they will jump at her. We’ve had a grasshopper, moth, and shield bug thus far.

    Fantastic

    Bought for a 5yr old boy who loves bugs. I am certain this will be loved by him, but as he hasn’t received it yet I can’t give any more review. I do think it’s an excellent gift.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersA previously purchased bug kit made by a well known brand turned out to be extremely shoddily made and broke after only a couple of uses leaving my Grandson very disappointed. Wish I had seen this one first as it’s way better and has already had plenty of use. The booklet is useful too and the various items in the kit are easy for little hands to use. Will be purchasing a couple more as birthday gifts for other little bug fans in the family.

    Bought for my 5 yr old granddaughter, she loves it and tries to catch everything. From an adults point of view we found the bug container quite hard to open ,she couldn’t do it herself, the magnifying lid was very good. I don’t think I would buy the same again. Quite a large box with not an awful lot in it.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersThis bug collecting is good but the parts can break easily. There are also some small parts that can get lost easily as well. I would suggest getting a bag for them. The manufacturer’s recommended age is 5 – 3 (Yes, that is what it says!). I think that it would probably work more for 6 plus as
    Having said that, the range of items from tweezers, magnifier, bug holder are well thought out and could provide hours of fun.

    It has kept them quiet for hours, if you don’t mind being presented with all sorts of horrors from the garden!! Especially good as my 6 year old was doing mini beasts at school last term. They always put the mini beasts back!

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersFantastic product! I am a nanny for three kids in London and for the past three summers they have taken their bug safaris to Malham. Hunting for bugs has become their favourite way to spend their days. The kids love finding their bugs then learning what they have found and other fun facts. Fantastic product that lasts and kids will enjoy. Highly recommend.
