New in the Play and Find Out Series...Kids are full of challenging questions about the natural world-especially when it comes to animals. Bugs are one of the most varied and intriguing forms of life they encounter. This new volume in the popular Janice VanCleave's Play and Find Out series puts the answers to 50 questions kids commonly ask about bugs at parents' fingertips, in the form of easy and playful experiments that let children discover the answers on their own. Each experiment is introduced with a simple "Wonder" question, such as "I wonder how bugs can walk on water?" And there are "More Fun Things to Do" to further explore each topic. Easy-to-follow steps demonstrate simple experiments that kids will love. * Big, two-color illustrations show exactly how to do each activity.
