    My class absolutely love their insects.

    Posted by Elise on 10th Apr 2023

    My class absolutely love their insects and looking after them. They are easy to care for, with the children looking after them. Great for incorporating into our science unit of living and non living. Our insects arrived promptly and beautifully equipped for their journey. I have also experienced these insects in Tasmanian schools

    Amazing!

    Our two little girls arrived promptly, happy and healthy. Extremely active pair that has kept the whole family entertained since their arrival. Settled quickly and showed a keen preference to acacia leaves. So happy with the purchase and look forward to shopping with Minibeasts again.

    Fantastic because you can find it quite easily, it moves a lot and sheds its skin - all very interesting and we have not even given it to our granddaughter yet.
