mini beast hotels - hole punch fruit, leave outside then collect next day

you can use apples pears, any fruit really.

make little holes all over , we use an apple corer you could use a small spoon or even an empty pen if the fruit is soft.

leave them outside in different places, under grass, trees on hard surface to see which places have the most beasts.

the next day collect them they should be full of mini beasts.

LOL, excellent, I was reading elsewhere about slug and snail tanks in the play room, we never had one but I bet both would be fantastic
