Benefits

Catch the Hug-a-Bugs is very similar to a game of Hide-and-seek -your child will need to keep track of things physically and mentally. For example – I have already looked under the bed, now I’ll look in the wardrobe. This is great for their working memory and organisation.

On a sheet of paper, draw the outlines of the Hug-a-Bug characters – Sedric Snail, Bella Bee, Lily Ladybird, Bhu Beetle, Seb Spider and Cress Caterpillar
Ask your Little Bug to colour in the characters
Cut out each bug – we kept this simple by cutting an oval around each character
Next, attach a strip of cardboard to the back of each cutout character
Now the fun bit! Hide each character around the house! You could stick to one room to make the game simpler, or the whole house for a more difficult Hug-a-Bug hunt.
It is time for your Little Bug to “catch” the Hug-a-Bugs – can your Little Bug name each character as they find them? Can they remember their affirmation?
