 March 2004 |
| This was a chance
to delve into the science of creepy
crawly insects through demonstrations, experiments
and hands-on activities. We explored
insect life through ‘bug-glasses’,
matching games, mazes that followed
the activities of social insects, and
performing the honeybee dance. What
makes an insect was revealed
through specimens, quizzes and participants
building their own bugs. |
- The Creepy Crawly Trail involved
a search throughout the museum to
reveal insects that can be found
in the exhibits.
- Adventurous visitors ate ants,
crunched crickets, munched mealworms,
and gobbled grasshoppers while learning
how most of the world eats insects
as a regular and nutritious part
out their diet.
- This event also marked the grand
opening of Bugtown, the museum's
new insect-themed discovery lab.
