Hi all. I am hoping that someone might have a recommendation for
me. My dd would really like a butterfly net and a cool creature
keeper/something to keep bugs in for a while to watch them. You all
might remember that I'm in Turkey, and the store we have here on
base doesn't have much of anything! I did a little searching
online, but I didn't find anything good. There are just too many
homeschool supply sites to wade through, and I thought someone may
have a quick recommendation of a source that they've used before.

Also, we would like to find some kind of yard activities, like those
balls with paddles or little hand net/ball games - something of that
sort. We've been kind of bored lately and need some new
entertainment!

I would totally appreciate any help on this! Thanks!
