Bug City

Overall Rating: 4.6 out of 58out of 9 reviewers would recommend this product to a friend.

Great for outdoor play

December 26, 2024 - By Brittany Vozzafrom Westerville, OH

We don’t have much of a yard so we need outdoor things that don’t require a lot of space (can’t play sports outside). This is perfect. My kids like bugs and things a fun way to observe them and create a little habitat opposed to a jar where they can’t move much.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Wonderful tool to help explore

September 19, 2024 - By mom of 2from New York, NY

My twin 5 year olds love this bug city. They go in the yard, find bugs, put them in with leaves and water and food. It is a fantastic tool for exploring the nature around them.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Perdect for little explorers

July 07, 2020 - By Ursula Gouletfrom LAS VEGAS, NV

The kids love it. They get the insects and put them inside the bug city, we added leaves, little flowers. Very lovely, they are having a blast. 4 stars because it is not easy to clean.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great for Watching up Close

April 30, 2020 - By Jessica Burksfrom Roanoke, TX

This is great for little ones who love bugs. We have put in quite a few rolly pollies and lady bugs. The only thing I dont like is that the connectors arent very tight and they come apart easily when moving the habitat around.

Yes, I would recommend this product.

Potentially fun

May 31, 2016 - By rog0from Plainfield, IL

The tubes fall off easily, allowing the bugs to escape, so don't use it inside the house! The concept of observing different kinds of bugs is fascinating, but they die quickly. It is not compatible with the bug vacuum...this makes transferring the bugs very hard. Nonetheless, it can be a fun toy for kids if they have some parental help.

Bug Loving Nephew Adores It

October 05, 2015 - By Auntiefrom Philadelphia, PA

My 9 year old nephew loves bugs so when I saw this, I knew it was for him. I gave it to him for his birthday and he LOVED it. Went outside immediately to start catching bugs. If your child/relative is a bug lover, they will enjoy this.

Yes, I would recommend this product.
