Answer

Bugs, insects, snakes, worms,etc.

Answer

I feel that I should note that this dialogue is a little bit confusing and has some mistakes in it. The term "creepy-crawlies" means small animals, usually without fur, so snakes, worms, possibly turtles, bugs, etc. and "in the stream" just means that those animals live in a stream (if you don't already know, a stream is a small river, usually around one foot deep or less). However, this isn't a commonly used term in English conversation, it would more commonly be found in a book, specifically a book written for children.
