That is priceless! I was wondering the same thing, what is he doing with the crushed bugs?
When my DD was that age she used to take some of the lunch she didn't finish into her room and put it in her toy chest, without my knowing it. When I found it I asked what it was doing in there and her response was, "For later." 28 years later she still loves left overs but she doesn't hide them in her bedroom. (She is one of those people that only eats when she is hungry so doesn't over-eat.)

I asked DD what Walter was doing with the crushed bugs. She is worried but doesn't know. Hopefully he fed the chickens or embellished a mud pie but that is unlikely since the press was in his room.

Kids can be very morbid when it comes to bugs. We used to do some crazy stuff to lightning bugs when I was a child. We lit ants on fire with a magnifying glass, tied strings to June Bugs, and melted slugs with salt. Those were the good old days... LOL

My cousins used to swat June bugs out of the air with tennis rackets and stomp on them. They were protecting their mom's garden...at least that's what I was told. From indoors you couldn't see the bugs, at first I had no clue what they were doing out there! Looked like they'd lost their minds, LOL.
