Kid's Nature Magazines – Issue 83 – Reptiles Rock!

September 2021: Reptiles Rock!

This month, we give a warm welcome to lots of cold-blooded creatures! Let’s rap about reptiles and answer some crucial questions…

Do all reptiles lay eggs? Do they feel warm or cold? Can Komodo dragons breathe fire? Why do chameleons change their colour? And how do green basilisks walk on water?

Meet some prehistoric reptiles, including the greatest creatures of all time – dinosaurs! And discover some truly weird-looking animals, from a thorny lizard with two heads to a trio of seriously strange snakes!

Catch up on the latest wildlife news from around the world and have fun with crafts and puzzles!
