Ideas

Idea One:

Bug Hotel Page (Double Page Spread):

Page one:
How to/method, What you need, Interesting facts about bugs found in England

Page Two:
- Cartoon style/drawings/illustrations on one half of the page
- The other half of the page would have a section where there will be a black and white (so the children can colour it in)/outlined version/take on the bug hotel with the instructions of the children drawing in the bugs that they have found using the above box with bugs found in England as a reference.

Idea Two:

Front Page:
- The background could feature bugs of all different shapes and sizes and different animals found in UK woodlands (the style would be cartoony- there is an example on my research blog post of this style)
- There would be a section on the front cover which will give the children an opportunity to write their names on the dotted line- From primary research (My Mom working as a primary school teacher), I have learned that children feel more attached to things they can write their names on as it becomes there's and is more personal to them.
- Another idea I had would be to print a personalised activity book for each child but then the price of printing and labour charge for someone changing names would be too much money.
- Personalised pages could still exist though, there could be dotted lines with the instruction of the child writing their name on the line or "Please Write Your Name Here".

E.g.     "...................'s Bug Hotel"

Idea Three:

- On the pages with the bushcraft activities/on a page afterwards, there could be an option for the child to stick in a photograph of the task completed or them completing the task.
- This would make the activity book more personalised and would be something the child could keep forever as a kind of journal and souvenir

Idea Four:

- Lined paper, Handwritten Font
- Black type and white/off white paper
- Small/large hand drawn illustrations.
