bug jar

I discovered a new bug jar for Sparkle - an empty peanut butter jar.
I added it to the nature walk bag and we also took it camping.

It is plastic so it won't break.
It is transparent, so we can see the bugs.
It was free - and easy to replace as we eat more peanut butter.
It has a wide opening so inserting the bugs is easy.
It has high sides, so bugs don't jump out too easily.
It has a screw on lid that stays on securely.

Here's some rolly-polly's in the bottom of the jar.


And most importantly ....
It does *not* have air holes, so that she knows she must release the bugs.

Here's Sparkle releasing her horde of rolly polly's.
