In this relay style activity, students take turns trying to collect food and drink using a variety of different tools mimicking insect mouthparts. The group of students to finish first wins! This is a great way to teach students about the wide variety of insect anatomy.

Teachers may choose to use additional images of insect mouthparts to serve as a visual guide. This slideshow, while not affiliated with the above resource, has some excellent photos and diagrams of each mouthpart.
