Our Bush Tucker range celebrates this cultural knowledge and traditions by allowing Educators to quickly incorporate traditional bush foods into their curriculum. Found in Australia?s arid or semiarid environments Honey Ants are ants that have swollen abdomens full of sweet honeydew. Traditionally gathered by women from nests found under shrubs or trees and collected in coolamons, the honey is sucked from the abdomen taking care not to kill or hurt the ant (whilst not getting bitten) allowing the ants to continue making more honey. Honey Ants also feature in traditional artworks with the honey ant said to be the earthly manifestation of the Seven Sisters. The Dreaming story for the Yerramp (Honey Ant) belongs to Ngkwarlerlanem and Arnkawenyerr in northern Utopia and connects to other stories in other areas.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped in respectful partnership with Lavina Bennell Art, an Awe \u0026amp; Wonder employee and Noongar Elder Neville Collard, an Aboriginal consultant for Awe \u0026amp; Wonder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMade from felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSmallest part measures approximately 4.5cm x 2cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAge 3yrs+\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Superstar Kids","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50201688375536,"sku":"366_060_25","price":22.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0849\/8901\/8352\/files\/95b5f5f6-65e0-409d-af97-176aa11ea482_4a8fd537-1957-4e75-aac7-46ae7182edf3.jpg?v=1789635951","url":"https:\/\/www.superstarkids.com.au\/products\/awe-wonder-bush-tucker-honey-ants","provider":"Superstar Kids","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
