"Children's interest in bugs can easily become the best kind of exploratory learning. And along the way, they can learn to be kind and respectful to even the smallest of animals, which ultimates in a deep concern for all life on Earth." Toni Albert, M.Ed

Busy with Bugs provides an ant hill of activity for kids who love bugs and bug adventures. The book buzzes with practical how-to information, fun facts, and 160 exciting hands-on-bugs activities. By introducing children to thrilling, close-up encounters with the little animals called bugs, award-winning author Toni Albert encourages independent learning and personal discoveries. Children can investigate bug behavior, life cycles, and habitats in their own backyards and school yards.

Children learn how to build seven different bug traps; estimate the temperature of the air by listening to a cricket's chirp; plan a Grasshopper Field Day with friends; talk to fireflies with a penlight; plant a butterfly garden—or a caterpillar garden; watch a millipede clean its feet; collect a spider web; and find out if aphids prefer the color yellow. And that's only 15 of the 160 activities presented in this book!
