Spring Fest

Many years ago, the Purdue Entomology department began an outreach program for the community, aptly called the Bug Bowl. This morphed into the Purdue SpringFest which encompasses all sorts of activities organized by all the academic programs on campus. This year we met up with some friends and introduced them and Mia to just a small portion of the many activities.

Mia ate her first elephant ear...


We also convinced her to try a chocolate covered cricket!!


Nicklas participated in the cricket spitting contest...


He also held a baby chick...


And finally my favorite - there was the bug petting zoo...
