From the Sublime to the Ridiculous: A Great Activity for Kids

From The New York Times:
HOUSTON (AP) -- A Houston museum is paying cash for live cockroaches as it seeks to populate a new exhibit.

The 25-cent-per-bug offer comes from the Houston Museum of Natural Science.

The center is trying to secure 1,000 live cockroaches for an updated insect display.

Curator Nancy Greig says cockroaches are as clean as the area in which they live, and catching them is a great activity for kids.
