National Geographic Bug Catcher Kit and Outdoor Insect Habitat for Kids

This is such a cool bug catching set. Well worth the price for sure. My kiddo loves bugs, but neither one of us enjoy touching them, which is why this set with the little bug catching tool, net, and tweezers to arrange leaves inside the container is perfect for us. The magnifying glass piece works great for viewing their faces up close. The tray in the bottom comes out for easy washing, and it has little crevices to put in water or dirt or whatever you'd like to help keep your bug comfortable while observing it for a day or two. My child is 3 and I help him out with using the tools and whatnot, but he's learning so much by observing bugs and has lost his fear of spiders entirely because he can see them make webs up close and even respects what the bugs each do differently for our environment. I think he'll enjoy this set for many years and many bugs to come! It's not very big, but big enough to house one or two bugs for a small period of time. It's plastic, but durable. We've dropped it on cement a few times and it still is in great shape. The lid snaps for a tight enclosure too, which means no bugs randomly escaping. It has plenty air holes, so no need to worry about the bug's safety with such a good locking lid either! Very cool bug catching kit compared to others out there. We love it!

I bought this kit for a six-year-old kid. He loved it. As soon as he opened all his gifts, he was outside trying to catch bugs. It is well designed and was very appropriate for his age. A couple of days after his birthday, he called me so he could show me all the bugs he had collected. This is a good product to introduce kids to science and nature and get them off of a video screen.

My son loves this bug catcher. I wish, however, that the container size were a bit bigger. It's durable add fun to going outdoors. Very educational for the whole family.

Very cute set for bugs. It has everything you need and my 4.5 year old grandson was very happy. He loves bugs. Seems pricey for the product but it seems like it will hold up ok.

Son loves it! Catches lizards and baby frogs and puts them in there for a close up view with the magnifying glass feature! Just wish the actual container was a bit bigger.

Got this for my 6 year old grand-nephew as part of his birthday gift, as he is so into bugs lately. He loves to find any kind of bug and shove it right up into my face and say "look what I found"! I am not so enthusiastic at his findings, but pretend to be! Wanted to support his interests and thought this would be the perfect gift. Well, he loves it! He immediately went to find a bug in the backyard. He was only able to find a large ant at the time, and quickly put it in the case. He examined it through the magnifying part of the case. There was one problem to make a note of. There are small air holes in the top, and the ant was able to get through and out. Lesson learned...it's meant for bigger bugs. Maybe spiders, grasshoppers or other creepy crawlers! I have no doubt he will find many bugs to catch and observe. He loves the tools that come with it too for capture, tweezers a net and I think there was 1 or 2 other things that I can't remember now. Unfortunately due to weather at the time, he was unable to continue his search, but I'm sure he will first chance he gets. Overall, a great kit for the small bug lovers in your life!

“This bug catcher kit is a huge hit. It’s the perfect size for catching ladybugs and observing them up close without hurting them. The magnified viewer works surprisingly well, and the container has good airflow so little critters stay safe while being admired. My kid loves carrying it around the yard like a tiny field scientist. Durable, easy to use, and great for sparking curiosity. Bug life, upgraded.” — Praying to the car gods

Great book for 6 & 4 year old! They love catching bugs and is perfect size for them

Que buen producto lo utilizo para identificación de insectos solo que la tela de la red me parece pequeña apenas para atrapar grillos

This National Geographic kit is absolutely worth the price. Great for children who like the outdoors. Easy to use for little hands who like exploring. The magnifying glass works really well. Would buy again.

A mi niño de 5 años le encantan los bichos. Es perfecta para pasear en el campo buscando bichitos

Great educational item
