One of the challenges of homeschooling overseas is trying to do nature study when you can't read any of the guidebooks.
Hooray for the internet. You can find a lot of information out there, just by searching something like "common spiders Japan" or "snakes of Japan." If you search through Google images, you can often figure out just what you're looking at.
If you're trying to identify just what spider has spun a web over the trampline or what the huge arachnid over the door of Chili's is, you might want to check out Common Spiders in Japan, which has photos of spiders grouped by season of the year.
