If you're going to be at the International Congress of Entomologists (ICE) 2016, and if you want hear, see, and touch some insects, the Insect Expo [1] makes this possible. If you can't be there - we'll take photos.

This Expo will feature incredible exhibits that include arts & crafts, an insect petting zoo, cockroach racing, cricket spitting, songs, games, edible insects, and fun projects that kids can take back home. http://ice2016orlando.org/about/call-for-ice-2016-insect-expo-ideas/ [1]. iDigBio Education and Outreach Coordinartor, Molly Phillips can't wait to show the kids the Libraries of Life 3-D cards and talk to them about insects.
