Bug Playground

by David Gordon

For the budding entomologist (bug expert) in your house, Smart Lab is proud to present the Bug Playground. Kids that love the creepy-crawlies will bug out at the idea of making their own bug reserve! After catching a variety of backyard bugs--crickets, ants, beetles, grasshoppers--kids can deposit their specimens in the Bug Playground and observe their behavior. Which bugs get along? Which bugs eat the same things? Are some bugs friendlier than others? Observation and recording is the cornerstone of science, and now it can be in your very own bedroom.
