One more thing I remember doing with my daughter. She came into the house screaming that there were bugs all over the sidewalk. She was afraid they'd bite her. I explained that those bugs were ants and that they liked to eat sugar. I got some sugar and poured a couple little mounds on the sidewalk in the path of some ants. I told her we'd go back and check on them later and she'd find lots of ants there. Sure enough - later there were quite a crowd circling the mounds of sugar and carrying away the grains. I got us a big magnifying lens and we watched the ants for a while. Pretty soon she was laying on the sidewalk with her face and magnifying lens inches from the sugar piles. Not long after she had a couple neighbor kids who had joined her in bug watching. After that, on a regular basis I would find her dashing out the door with a spoonful of sugar.
