The Big Bug Bag

The Big Bug Bag is an amazing animal encounter that brings exotic insects to schools, fêtes, youth groups, parties and other events so that children can explore the amazing world of invertebrates in a safe and familiar environment.

Please use the menus to explore the site and find out more about Pete and the show.
