MY THOUGHTS:

Ever since attending our local zoo’s new bug exhibit my boys (3 and 5) have been fascinated with bugs.  They just can’t get enough of bugs from looking at them outside to books and even YouTube!  The GeoSafari Jr. Talking Bug Net is something that I couldn’t wait for them to play with since they were so curious!

GeoSafari® Jr. Talking Bug Net

Choose a bug and drop it into the net to hear 100 amazing bug facts and quiz questions! Then listen as the Talking Bug Net asks you creepy, crawly questions using the facts you’ve learned. Grades Pre-K+

• Includes 6 bugs—also great for stand-alone play—and interactive Bug Net
• Speaks dozens of bug facts, phrases, games, and instructions

The GeoSafari Jr. Talking Bug Net is perfect for any curious child who is interested in bugs.  There are two ways to play, first you can drop bugs in to hear one of the 100 bug facts about them or you can get quizzed.  My 3 year old loves to drop the bugs in and hear the facts, many of which he is actually retaining and repeating later on.  It is so nice to see him interested and fascinated with something other than cars, even if its bugs.  The facts are all different and simple enough for kids to understand.  Also the net is super easy to use as once you install the 3 AAA batteries (not included) you just turn it on and drop the bugs in.  There are the two different functions on the side as well as two volume levels.  I think the only thing that would make this better is maybe more bug facts, although we have yet to hear them all and maybe a way for the net to hold all the bugs for storage purposes.  Overall though the bug net has kept my 3 and 5 year old busy and they love hearing all the random bug facts.  They also think its like magic how the net knows which bug is in the net.
