Hide-A-Bug: Build a Bug Shelter with Professor Bugman
Animals need shelter, and it’s up to your children to use our forest-gathered materials to build a shelter fit for a bug. Not just any bug, but our residential judge, Mr. Cranky B. Cockroach! Will he approve of your shelter and find safety within, or will he hiss and make his way to more suitable real estate?
Registration required. This event is for ages 5-9 and is not recommended for children under the age of 5.
