BugBios: shameless promotion of insect appreciation
http://insects.org/index.html

The kids at Bridge School are studying bugs this month. At BugBios you’ll find more information about the creepy crawly members of the Animal Kingdom than you can imagine. If you have a child who can’t get enough details send them here. The site includes stunning photography along with detailed biographies. If that isn’t enough, there are links to articles, lessons and other bug sites.
