The observation of bugs creates a fascinating introduction for budding naturalists into biology, ecology, the environment, and even health, creating a challenging and inspiring environment for outdoor STEM learning.

Our Junior Naturalist lesson plans are comprised of week-long curriculum, focused on one nature-based subject, inviting kids and parents to get outside and explore the world around them to create a deeper connection to nature, while also providing easy-to-follow outdoor education ideas.

Our Bug Observation lesson plan offers a week packed with activities, critical thinking prompts, and creative ways for kids to interpret their findings. Check out the week-long Bug Observation lesson plan, worksheet, and tips and tricks for proper learning below, or download it for free by clicking on the links below.
