Ahhh, spring! Flowers, showers and bugs buzzing everywhere. Remember catching creepy crawlies in a bottle so you could take a closer look? Well, this week we’re giving away the tools your kid needs to wile away a lazy afternoon just like that: Workman Publishing’s Bug Book & Bug Bottle – with ventilated lid so insects stay safe till junior returns them to the garden, unharmed – and a cool Bugs Fandex. Very fun. And all you have to do win this is click “comments” and tell us, what’s your kids’ favorite way to laze away a summer afternoon? We’ll draw a winner’s name next Monday. (This contest is now closed – congrats, Tim! Click here for details on the next contest.)

My son likes to dig in the dirt, and haul it around in his toy dump truck. He could do this endlessly.

Hello! In the really hot and humid days of summer here in the Midwest, running through the cold water of a sprinkler is fun, a water balloon fight (we pick up all
of the balloon pieces) and swimming in a their Aunt’s
swimming pool are my children’s activities.
My 91 year old day still plants a vegetable garden
and would enjoy his grandsons bring beneficial bugs
to his garden
Many thanks!
