In A Trap in Bloom: The Venus Flytrap’s Double Life, narrator Sir David Attenborough introduces the Venus flytrap, a carnivorous plant that attracts insects with sweet nectar on its leaves. When an insect triggers the hairs on the trap, it snaps shut. After a few days it reopens, leaving only the insect’s dry remains. However, Venus flytraps also need to pollinate, so it grows tall flowers away from its traps, allowing insects to safely feed on nectar and spread pollen, ensuring the plant can reproduce. This video is excerpted from BBC's Life, a show that explores the remarkable strategies animals and plants use to ensure their survival.
In Frost on the Taiga, narrator Sir David Attenborough explains how frost forms on trees, branches, and leaves. But with each new ice crystal, more leaves die.

This video is excerpted from BBC’s Frozen Planet, a series that shows a fragile world of beauty and hostility, where nature finds a way to survive and thrive in frigid conditions.
Aw, look at these little critters. Just snip, roll and stick to make a butterfly, dragonfly, or a ladybug. Too easy! You'll need your own popsicles sticks. Here's what you'll do:
- Cut out the bits on the page. Glue the wings to the sticks first! Then roll and stick on the bodies. Make sure to leave a gap at the top of each stick for the head.
- Roll the heads into smaller loops and tape shut. Then curl the antennae (feelers!) around a pencil and glue them on top of the heads.
- Tape the heads at the top of the sticks. Ding ching! Say hello to your bug friends!
