Science Week: NC Zoo

I took the kids to the zoo one day during science week and we walked through the special "Bugs" exhibit that was there this summer. The kids LOVED it. There were these ridiculous giant animatronic bugs placed along a path in the forest. They were super creepy and the kids thought they were awesome and disgusting. They screamed every time we approached a new one. One even surprised Oliver by spraying him with water. At least we hope it was water. There was a firefly that lit up and a spider that went up and down a web. They all moved in some way. And we had the exhibit to ourselves which was fun. The exhibit ended with a few real bugs we could look at, which weren't nearly as exciting as the super sized bugs.
