The kids were able to pick it up and look at the insect from the back and the front. The case protected the lace-like wings and made the dragonfly more "friendly" since it was in plastic.Partly Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15944718690905806506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2887282401320601093.post-71698021387777880712011-06-16T16:45:51.230-07:002011-06-16T16:45:51.230-07:00Anonymous - the petri dishes we used are plastic (...Anonymous - the petri dishes we used are plastic (we got them in lots of 10 from Ebay) but the plates and bowls idea is fabulous!
