Experience the fascinating world of insects with the Roylco Beautiful Bug Pack, a hands-on activity that combines science, art, and creativity into one engaging experience. This set includes 64 vibrant paper bugs based on 16 common insect species, each featuring detailed illustrations and the Latin name of the insect, helping to introduce children to scientific classification and biodiversity. Children decorate their bugs using crayons or markers, then follow easy-to-understand instructions to punch out, fold, and glue the pieces into realistic, three-dimensional models. With the addition of chenille stems for legs, each bug takes on a lifelike appearance that supports creative storytelling and imaginative play. Ideal for classrooms, home learning, or before and after school care, this pack offers a meaningful way to explore ecosystems and the importance of insects. The activity promotes fine motor skill development, hand-eye coordination, and teamwork while encouraging children to discover and appreciate the diversity of the natural world. Crafted from child-safe and eco-friendly materials, this pack supports learning through tactile, visual, and collaborative exploration.
