Jungles
Five ways that you can connect with nature and learn more about planet's jungle biomes from home.
In jungles, everywhere is special.
Jungles contain a bewildering diversity of life, all intricately linked. Life here has evolved to fit every niche, but due to deforestation they're disappearing faster than anywhere on earth. Below you'll find a series of engaging resources and activities to help you connect with nature and learn more about our planet's jungle habitats; from creative 'make-it' events, to educational worksheets and a live webinar with a WWF expert. If you’re a teacher, download our Educator Guide for further curriculum linked activities for Key 2 and 3. You might also want to download our new activity pack 'Amazing Amazon.

Join Matt for a special look at these fascinating insects and some tips on how to find them, record them, and study their incredible activities.

Trillion trees art challenge
Create an artwork inspired by the rainforest. Be inventive; you might want to make an illustrated poem, a paper cut out, a painting or a journal of everything you’ve used that has come from the rainforest.
