Family Fun Friday Nights! End your week right at DuPage Children's Museum. Different themed activities every week!
This Week's Activity: Anderson Pest Solutions Insect Zoo
Activity Begins : 5 p.m. (ends at 7 p.m.)
Ever wanted to get nose-to-nose with a praying mantis? Pet a giant pumpkin millipede as long as your hand? See how far a giant lubber grasshopper can jump?
Children will get an opportunity to interact with live insects this Friday when representatives from Anderson Pest Solutions bring their Insect Zoo to the Museum's Art Studio.
The experts from Anderson Pest Solutions will introduce children to nature's Good Guy bugs, such as Hercules beetles, giant lubber grasshoppers, giant pumpkin millipede and more. Find out how, as nature's recycers, these insects contribute to our environment.

Museum and exhibits are open until 8:00 pm.
This event is FREE to DCM members and/or with Museum admission. Pre-registration is not required.
