Building My Bug Hotel
We gathered wood from around our house. We found Tea Tree, Japanese Cedar and Macrocarpa which is wood that we have collected from my Nana and Poppa’s farm.
In the top box we have hung herbs using metal hooks and string. We also put an air plant in because it doesn’t need soil to grow, it only needs water to grow.
In the next box we have a birds nest out of our garden. Don’t worry there were no birds in it when we found it. There is also a Flax flower, Palm tree stick, Magnolia bud, and an off-cut of wood.
And finally the last two boxes have bamboo, shells, flowers, Tea Tree and Pine cones.
I enjoyed building the hotel the most.
I found it challenging trying to find things to put in the hotel.
What is your favourite thing in the hotel and why?
