Very well made. Will be sturdy and great to catch various critters for observation and then release. Will be much enjoyed by our 4 yr. old bug, fish and insect loving granddaughter.

This item came a lot smaller than my daughter was expecting. It is well made with a magnifying circle on top to look up close at the inside of your creature barn and a separate circle shaped removable lid to place food inside. There is also a cool light feature that can be switched on and off and a handle bar to carry your barn around. It is very small but the right size for small kids to manage and carry. The only thing I really don't like is that there isn't a lockable lid. The lid comes off too easy. For this reason, and that reason alone, This is not the perfect gift. I would not buy another one for my nephew or anyone else because of this reason alone. We are currently using this to hold praying mantis egg cases. Once they hatch we will place them outside. A frog can easily remove the lid.

My son wanted a bug habitat. I wanted one where the lid would stay on well so that there would not be escaping critters. Years later, we still have it and is still catching bugs.

My kids are excited to learn about bugs and I'm excited to end the stigma that spiders are bad. I've managed to catch several house spiders and we'd been keeping them in glass Ball canning jars but I was excited to get these critter keepers instead since it has a light and I could easily add bugs and the kids could enjoy watching the feast. Well, I've put two house spiders (a parson spider and a domestic house spider. Neither spider are very large but neither are tiny, either and have been significantly larger than any of the small holes that are in this critter barn. Both times I tried to use the barn, the spiders were gone by morning. I have yet to figure out how they escaped but after several days of carefully inspecting the box to be sure they weren't hiding REALLY REALLY WELL, I took the lid off for a better inspection and confirmed that, yes, I managed to let two spiders loose in my daughter's room. Very disappointed that we'll have to continue to use the canning jars since it's harder to add bugs when you've caught a web-spinning spider (disturbing the web every time you insert a bug).The second issue with these is that we took them down to the creek in case we came across any interesting critters. The handles kept popping out while my kids were carrying them even though I made sure the handles were secure before giving to them. They were not rough with these at all - carried them like normal by the handle only to have the handles pop out on the sides. If we had caught a frog or anything with weight, there is no way the handles would have held while carrying the box around.Aside from the mystery of the disappearing house spiders and the handles not being more secure, they are nice little critter barns. I would recommend them for ages 4+ because the lids and handles can easily pop off if a small child were to "play" with the barn while a critter was inside. Even when I've made sure the lid is properly closed, I don't trust it to not pop off...it's too easy to open, in my opinion. The light and the largeness and ability to add more bugs without having to remove the entire lid is wonderful, but I've determined that my kids can only use the boxes for observation and (not actually handle the boxes) to prevent any escaped critters which is disappointing.

Awesome, my 5 year old son loves it. It is fairly expensive for a glorified Tupperware container. But it is what it is! The light is a wonderful touch!

The light, magnified window, and overall design made this good choice for my child’s critter collecting. My only complaint is I wish the lid could latch on rather it is just sitting on top.
