They are in decline mainly due to habitat loss (disruption of food source, pollution, destruction)

What can we do to help them?

Look after and encourage wildlife by feeding birds, having untidy areas of the garden, avoiding pesticides, putting up bird boxes and bug hotels.

Project the hedgehog mask completed or leave the picture of the bitesize hedgehog up.

Beavers cut out and colour in their mask. If there is time, attach elasticated cord to each side with staples.

Talk to Beavers about helping wildlife while they are colouring, &c
