Fun Bug Activities and Crafts!

As the weather gets cooler in Michigan, it seemed to be the perfect time to gather together some bug crafts and learning activities to have some fun with the kiddos.  Children have a natural curiosity of insects and so, we gathered some of our favorites things to do from several talented and creative sites online for you and your family. Not only are these crafts and activities amazingly creative, they are also either FREE or almost free.   Enjoy!
