 A lot more fun than I ever would have anticipatedJun 23, 2010
By PSKW
"PSKW"
Ordered these bugs for my two-year-old. They have turned out to be such a big hit and more fun than I would have anticipated. I ordered them in conjuction with the M&D snake magnifying glass. We play with these bugs all the time: we hide them in the grass and learn about camouflage; we hide them around the house and play detective; we give them baths in the pool or just a bucket of water; they are target practice for our spray bottles. Sometimes we catch them in nets or our dinosaurs eat them. These simple colorful bugs have given way to some great pretend play. They are good quality - the legs won't rip off and the color doesn't chip. Highly recommend.

Exactly what I was looking for!Feb 07, 2011
By mom of two
These little bugs are perfect! My 3 year old daughter kept asking us for bugs. I hadn't purchased any because all the ones I had seen were tiny and would be choking hazards for our 10 month old. These are just big enough that they are not a hazard. They are also REALLY cute, not creepy looking bugs. Cute colors (not realistic), nicely made and have provided lots of fun for our daughter. Thanks to Melissa & Doug for another great product!

Huge hit!Aug 27, 2011
By Edward C.

Got these little guys for our (almost) two-year-old son, and they were not only a big hit with him, but also with his (almost) four-year-old sister (except for the ants -- she has a bit of myrmecophobia). Colorful and durable, they helped us teach him their names as well (although "centipede" comes out "ti-pe-ta-pee"). I believe they're too big to be considered a choking hazard, despite the warning, unless the kid is bound and determined to get one down his throat.
Two each of centipede, ant, grasshopper, ladybug and beetle.

Fun and bright summer toys! Perfect for toddler water table!Apr 05, 2012
By sassymom
If you know what to expect when ordering these, you will be very happy with your purchase.
This is a set of 10 colorful, plastic play bugs. They are each approximately 2-3 inches long. Very well sized for toddlers and young children. They vary in bright colors-- our set included yellow, green, blue, orange, pink, and navy. They are made of rigid plastic. These bugs do NOT wiggle or move. They are sturdy, durable, and very well-made.
I bought these for warm-weather outdoors play. They are perfect to hide in the grass, play with in a water table, or use as a "hide and seek" with a magnifying glass in the garden. This is not a stand-alone toy-- you will need some imagination, but they are great!!! Also wonderful for teaching counting, sorting, etc.

 Chipped paintDec 12, 2011
By Victoria A. Genetin
I purchased these bugs for my niece and nephew. I've always been very happy with Melissa & Doug products. They are durable, aesthetically pleasing, and educational. However, I was disappointed when I received these bugs as the paint was chipped in several places and it appears as though paint dripped in places it wasn't supposed to on the backs of some of the bugs. I don't plan on returning them, I was just hoping for a better product (aesthetically).
