Features
- A LITTLE RESPECT: Examining little insects up close helps kids to respect the complexities and uniqueness of insects.
- MEASURING UP: Use the measuring grid on the bottom to compare the size of the insects. Light up the details with the magnifying glass and LED light.
- GENTLY DOES IT: Air holes keep the bug alive while your child learns more about them. Once the bug has been observed, gently release it back into nature.
- SUSTAINABLY MADE: The toy is made using biomass (non-oil-based) plastic. After all, we want to leave loads of nature for future generations to explore.
