What Is the Minibeast Magnifier Used For?

Children use the Minibeast Magnifier to take a closer look at the small animals they find outdoors: beetles, ants, woodlice, snails and rockpool creatures. The creature sits in the pot while the child looks down through the magnifying lid, so small features such as legs, antennae and body segments become easy to see and count. It turns a garden walk into a real investigation, with drawing, sorting and naming to follow.

Coax each creature in gently with a leaf or soft brush rather than fingers, keep the pot in the shade and limit viewing time. The pots also carry an important lesson: every minibeast is a living thing that must not be harmed, and once the children have finished investigating it should be let go, preferably in the same place it was found.
