Pill Bugs aren't really bugs!

My kids are watching "Sid the Science Kid" and I overheard this. Never thought about it...but it makes sense.

Roly Polies/Pill Bugs/Woodlice are not bugs after all. They're crustaceans. Land lobsters anyone? :lol:

I suppose now we'll have to address them properly given the "PC" environment we're living in. :>

Well I for one am drawing the line. Pill Bug. There, I said it.

Whenever that show is on I sit down with my son and enjoy. I love the girl with glasses who acts like she is having constant safety meetings. Cracks me up!

I know who you're talking about. :lol: My daughter has actually learned a lot from that show. She was telling us about incline planes one day. She's 4.

Nice. My little guy will hold a bat or stick and pretend to push buttons on it like Sid does. Jim Henson's kids are associated with or created that show.

Delicious, you just have to look under 1000 rocks and fallen logs to get a good sized serving.
