    I have been seeking bug related fun things for my “just-now” two year old grandson. Years before he was even born, I found a great battery operated bug, which my grandson now absolutely loves. I am creating a pattern for a sewn bug-activity book. But I would like to get my hands on sound effects to incorporate in my book. I am planning on making them removable for the sake of washing the book. Any ideas for sources? I have perfected my bee, complete with wings that flap when you tug the stinger string. The book won’t be ready for him until Christmas, so I have some time!
